About Adam

Dr Adam Rosser is a Lecturer in Chemistry in the School of Science and Technology at the University of New England. He earned a BSc in Chemistry, BSc (Hons), and PhD in Chemistry from the University of New England, completing his doctoral studies from 2009 to 2018. As a physical organic and computational chemist with a keen interest in chemical and STEM education, Dr Rosser employs quantum chemical calculations to elucidate the structure and reactivity of real chemical systems. This work supports advancements in organic synthesis and drug design while enhancing comprehension of macromolecules such as proteins and synthetic polymers. A key research focus involves anomeric amides, a novel class of amides discovered at UNE, characterized by unusual pyramidal nitrogen geometry, low amidicity, and distinctive reactivity, including HERON reactions, with promising applications as antibiotics and cancer chemotherapy drugs.
