AUTHOR BIOGRAPHY Adam Prus is an Associate Professor in the Department of Psychology at Northern Michigan University, in Marquette, Michigan. He earned his Ph.D. in psychology from Virginia Commonwealth University. While in graduate school, he also worked as a research technician at a large pharmaceutical company. After earning his degree, he served as postdoctoral fellow in the Psychopharmacology Division of the Department of Psychiatry at Vanderbilt University, working under the mentorship of Herbert Meltzer, a leader in antipsychotic drug research. Adam has published numerous original studies on psychoactive drugs and conducts research projects funded by the National Institute of Mental Health, private foundations, and pharmaceutical companies. When he is not teaching or doing research, Adam spends time with his family, fixes up their house (which he thinks has a lot of potential), and works on his golf game (which may have less potential, but is enjoyable nonetheless).
