He made significant and well-cited contributions in supersymmetry, supergravity, superspace, and superstrings., and the connections among them.[2] In 1977, with John Schwarz and Joël Scherk, he introduced the first supersymmetric Yang-Mills theories.[3]

During 1971–1973, he was member of the theory group at CERN.[1][4]

Starting in 1986, he had been professor of theoretical physics at Chalmers Institute of Technology in Gothenburg.[5] Brink is one of the pioneers of superstring theory, since the 1970s (at CERN and Caltech). He coordinated the EU network Superstring Theory 1991–1995 and 2000–2008.[6]

In 1997 he became a member of the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences.[7]

In 2001, 2004 and from 2008 to 2013 he was a member of the Nobel Committee for Physics and its chairman in 2013.[8]
