Brian Skinner works in condensed matter theory, studying how electrons behave collectively in materials like graphene and other two-dimensional systems, including phenomena such as electron crystallization, viscous ('hydrodynamic') electron flow, and thermoelectric effects. He also works on quantum information topics such as measurement-induced phase transitions in quantum circuits. This is theoretical/computational physics research, often done in collaboration with experimental groups.

Publication output has fluctuated over the last decade, with a peak of 13 papers in 2023 but notably lower counts in 2022, 2024, and the partial 2025-2026 data, suggesting an irregular rather than steadily growing or declining pace.
