John Brewer

John Brewer is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Physics and Astronomy at San Francisco State University. His research explores quantum many-body physics, ultracold atomic systems, and condensed matter theory, with an emphasis on emergent phenomena in strongly correlated materials and engineered quantum platforms. At SFSU, he mentors undergraduate and graduate students, integrating research with hands-on learning and collaborative projects. Brewer’s group investigates theoretical models and computational approaches to understand quantum phases and dynamics, contributing to the broader effort to bridge fundamental physics and potential quantum technologies. He is active in departmental service and community-focused science outreach.
