Conrad Philipp is the coordinator of the ELLIS Unit Jena, where he facilitates collaboration across a network of leading institutions, including the Friedrich Schiller University Jena, the Max Planck Institute for Biogeochemistry, and the German Aerospace Center. The unit’s research focuses on using machine learning and AI to tackle challenges in environmental and climate sciences, aiming to deepen the understanding of Earth’s dynamic systems and guide evidence-based decision-making for policy and society.

Before joining ELLIS, Conrad worked in the public relations team at the Max Planck Institute for Biogeochemistry, where he helped communicate groundbreaking research to broader audiences. He also coordinated the “Cooling Singapore” project at the Singapore-ETH Zurich Centre and worked as a postdoctoral research fellow in Australia. As part of the pan-European ELLIS network, which consists of 43 units across 17 countries, Conrad works to promote human-centered AI, ensuring that Europe leads the way in this field.
