Stanislas Adam is a legal secretary at the Court of Justice (Luxembourg), in the cabinet of President Koen Lenaerts, and professor of European Union law at Ghent University, where he teaches ‘EU Competition Law’ (in cooperation with V. Demedts and J. Bocken).

After graduating in law at the UCL and in European law at Ghent University, he was awarded a doctorate fellowship from the National Fund for Scientific Research – Flanders (FWO). He defended his doctoral thesis in 2010, under supervision of Professor Marc Maresceau (La procédure d’avis devant la Cour de justice de l’Union européenne, Bruylant 2011). He then studied at Harvard University (LL.M.), where he benefitted from the Frank Boas Scholarship for Graduate Studies. After graduation, he was appointed a legal secretary at the CJEU, where he successively worked for Judge Nicholas J. Forwood (General Court), Advocate General Eleanor Sharpston (Court) and Judge Ricardo da Silva Passos (General Court), before recently joining the cabinet of the President of the Court, Koen Lenaerts. Stanislas thus enjoys a privileged position to take part in the development of EU case-law.
