From there Adam joined the UCL Institute of Hepatology (2004-2006) at University College London as a research fellow and shifted interests to viral immunology, which has been the focus of his research since. Adam moved to Singapore in 2006, joining A*Star as a research fellow, and continued his work on the T cell response to viral infection and how this can be exploited for clinical therapy. He is now assistant principal investigator at the Singapore Institute for Clinical Sciences, continuing his work on immunotherapy in chronic viral infections and virus-related cancer.
