From 1917 until 1920, Adler served in the Royal Army Medical Corps , attaining the rank of captain, serving in the Middle East, where he developed his first taste into research into tropical medicine , which he commenced studying after his military service, initially in Liverpool.[4] Sierra Leone to conduct research into Malaria.
In 1924, Chaim Weizmann offered him a job in Jerusalem to develop the new Institute of Microbiology.

In 1924, he became Assistant Professor of the Department of Parasitology at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem , serving as Professor from 1928 to 1955.
In 1930, in conjunction with Israel Aharoni , Adler had three Syrian hamsters brought back from Syria and successfully bred them as laboratory animals. This led to the domestication of the Syrian hamster .
In the 1940s he was a leader in developing a leishmaniasis vaccine using live parasites, a practice widespread in Israel and Russia until the 1980s, when large-scale clinical trials showed that the practice led to long-term skin lesions, exacerbation of psoriasis, and immunosuppression in some people.[5] [6]
