James Gates is an American theoretical physicist best known for his work on supersymmetry, supergravity, as well as superstring theory. He is a University of Maryland Regents Professor of Physics and a participant of President Barack Obama's Council of Advisors on Science and Technology. The Massachusetts Institute of Technology awarded Gates an SB (1973) and a Doctorate (1977) degrees.

His doctoral thesis on supersymmetry was the very first at MIT. Gates co-authored Superspace, or One Thousand and One Lessons in Supersymmetry (1984) along with M. T. Grisaru, M. Rock, and W. Siegel, the very first detailed manuscript on supersymmetry.

In October 2010, Gates was nominated by the Department of Energy as one of the Nifty Fifty Speakers for the United States Science and Engineering Carnival to introduce his job and professional life to middle and high school classmates. He is a member of the Society for Science & the Public's board of trustees.

Gates was a Residential Scholar at MIT's Simmons Hall as well as a Martin Luther King Jr. Attending Scholar at MIT (2010-11). At the MIT Center for Theoretical Physics, he is conducting research work on string theory, supersymmetry, & supergravity. His research is focused on Adinkra symbols as supersymmetric algebra interpretations.

He was awarded the National Medal of Science on February 1, 2013. Gates has appeared frequently on NOVA PBS physics initiatives, most noticeably The Elegant Universe. For The Teaching Company, he finished a DVD series labeled Superstring Theory: The DNA of Reality, which consisted of twenty-four half-hour lectures designed to make the difficulties of unification theory understandable to laypeople.

During the 2008 World Science Exhibition, Gates mentioned The Elegant Universe, a ballet in which he offered a public demonstration of the art forms related to his scientific research. In 2012, Gates emerged in the BBC Horizon documentary The Hunt for Higgs.
