After completing his doctoral program, Becker wrote and lectured on scientific concepts, providing lay-friendly professional commentary on science.[3][4]
In 2014, while employed at the Public Library of Science, Becker was a lead developer in a project that produced Rich Citations, which were an extensive expansion to the capabilities of digital cross-referencing across the PLOS platform.[12]. In 2018, after publishing What Is Real?, Becker was appointed as a visiting scholar at the Office for History of Science and Technology at the University of California, Berkeley[13]. In 2020 he accepted a position as a visiting researcher in the Department of Logic and Philosophy of Science, at University of California, Irvine[14].[3]
Becker has also been a member of the California Quantum Interpretation Network, "a research collaboration among faculty and staff at multiple UC campuses and other universities across California, focusing on the interpretation of quantum physics."[13]
Becker has announced ongoing work on a new publication that takes a step away from the controversy of his first book, What Is Real?, and instead explores the relationship between science and the Consumer Tech Industry that has evolved and been promulgated across the world from the Silicon Valley of California. This new project has an estimated publication date of "late 2023".[3]
