Adam M. Brandenburger is the J.P. Valles Professor at the Leonard N. Stern School of Business, New York University, with additional appointments as Distinguished Professor at the Tandon School of Engineering, Faculty Director of the NYU Shanghai Program on Creativity + Innovation, and Global Network Professor. He previously served as a professor at Harvard Business School from 1987 to 2002. His academic foundation includes a B.A., M.Phil., and Ph.D. from the University of Cambridge.
His research focuses on game theory, epistemic game theory, quantum game theory, and business strategy. He has made foundational contributions to the understanding of rationality, belief hierarchies, and the intersection of quantum mechanics with decision theory. His work spans economics, philosophy, computer science, and cognitive neuroscience, reflecting a deeply interdisciplinary approach.
The recent publications show a strong trend toward integrating quantum foundations, information theory, and behavioral economics. Themes include epistemic reasoning in non-classical systems, the role of symmetry in strategic interactions, and the neural basis of decision-making. His work increasingly explores the limits of classical probability and cognition, using tools from quantum information and sheaf theory.
While no formal scientific awards are listed, his publications in Nature Communications, Econometrica, and Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society indicate high scholarly impact. His collaborations with leading researchers across disciplines suggest a central role in advancing interdisciplinary science.
He advises and collaborates extensively, though specific students are not listed. His leadership in the NYU Shanghai Program on Creativity + Innovation highlights his commitment to global education and innovation. He has not received any grants explicitly mentioned, but his sustained publication output suggests active funding support.
He is associated with research initiatives bridging game theory, quantum information, and cognitive science. His recent unpublished work on quantum-assisted observatories and large language models points to forward-looking research at the intersection of AI, quantum technology, and strategic reasoning.
