Abraham's career has been notable for his contributions via non-parametric statistics to galaxy morphological classification, especially at high-redshift and early work on the Hubble Deep Field. He was one of the leaders of the "Gemini Deep Deep Survey" which led to several notable results on early galaxies including the evolution of elliptical galaxies and why a lot of them appear so remarkably old. In 2011 Abraham won the P.G. Martin award of the Canadian Astronomical Society.
Abraham currently serves the astronomical community by participating on the James Webb Space Telescope Advisory Committee and is Honorary President of the Toronto Centre of the Royal Astronomical Society of Canada.
