Grace Adams, MS, CHP, CIH

Grace Adams, MS, CHP, CIH is an experienced health physicist with a particular interest in developing models of radioactive and nuclear effects to inform national security and emergency response plans. With a BS in nuclear engineering from RPI and an MS in Radiation Health Physics from Oregon State University, she joined Gryphon in 2013 where she has investigated the consequences of radioactive fallout on critical industries, developed new models to assess the inhalation risk of radionuclides, and estimated the consequences of nuclear detonation on a variety of environments—projects all designed to improve the nation’s preparedness and response to radiological and nuclear events. Grace became a Certified Health Physicist (CHP) in 2019.

Grace is a self-professed “okay” cook (that others might describe differently), an avid biker, and has a nearly encyclopedic knowledge of the tv-series Futurama.
