菲利普斯在澳大利亚阿德莱德长大,并在南澳大利亚弗林德斯大学攻读学士和博士学位。 在马里兰大学(University of Maryland)和华盛顿大学(University of Washington)担任博士后研究员后,他于2000年在俄亥俄大学(Ohio University)担任助理教授。
2004年成为副教授,2009年成为正教授。 2014-2020年任核物理与粒子物理研究所所长。
Phillips develops theories of the atomic nucleus and has a particular interest in uncertainty quantification—the science of assessing the reliability of scientific predictions. He is the Principal Investigator of a $3.7M grant from the National Science Foundation, obtained together with researchers from Michigan State, Northwestern, and Ohio State called “Bayesian Analysis of Nuclear Dynamics” which seeks to improve forecasts of nuclear-physics quantities.
He is also interested in the way nuclei that are only just stable behave, and is strongly involved with the $700M Facility for Rare Isotope Beams at Michigan State University. His work is internationally recognized and he has held Visiting Professorships in Japan and Germany. He has been named as both a Fellow and an Outstanding Referee by the American Physical Society.
