Background

Dr. Arthur Bowman, III, is an experimental physicist specializing in solid state nanoelectronics. He completed his Bachelor of Science in Physics in 2014 at Wayne State University in Detroit, MI, the same institution that conferred a Ph.D. upon him in 2021. Arthur wrote his dissertation on enhancing the performance of field-effect transistor devices formed from atomically thin, 2D materials. Arthur is also a highly experienced community organizer. His policy interests lie in tackling the social problems that impede our government’s ability to “put science in command” and increasing engagement of scientists with community members to regain public trust and arm all Americans with knowledge of the biggest scientific problems that affect our lives. In his spare time, Arthur enjoys reading, cooking, and art.
