In late September, I had the honour of recording a conversation with the late Professor Ian Shipsey, Head of Physics at Oxford University. Tragically, Professor Shipsey passed away shortly after our discussion. We are releasing this episode as a tribute to his remarkable contributions.

Professor Shipsey was one of the leading particle physicists of his generation and was Head of Physics at Oxford from 2018 until his passing. His groundbreaking work ranged from studying subatomic particles to advancing our understanding of the Higgs boson, discovered at CERN in 2012. In recognition of his extraordinary contributions, he was elected a Fellow of the Royal Society in 2022.

In this podcast, we discussed climate change and renewable energy, quantum computing, and how physics can change the world around us.
