Ever since he was a kid Dr. Philipp Eller dreamed of becoming an inventor. Somewhere along the way, though, he veered slightly off course—and ended up as a physicist instead. After studying at ETH Zurich and earning a PhD,working on the CERN experiment, he headed to the US to join the Ice Cube collaboration—a team of scientists chasing neutrinos using a gigantic telescope built into the Antarctic ice at the South Pole.

Eventually, Philipp almost made it back to his motherland and landed at the Technical University of Munich, where he now holds a permanent research position. He continues his work with Ice Cube, delving deep into the mysteries of the universe (and ice).

These days, he leads a research group, teaches as a university lecturer, and serves as a principal investigator. Outside the lab, he’s also a husband and father—still inventing things, just not always in the way he imagined as a kid.

For this episode, our founder and host travelled to Iceland to speak to Dr. Philipp Eller.
