AIR 1? |Leaving IIT? |Life in Research and More! |Ft Dr Chitraang Murdia!

In this episode of Metaverse Entangled, we sit down with Dr. Chitraang Murdia — International Physics Olympiad Gold Medalist, AIR 13 in NTSE, and AIR 1 in JEE Advanced, to explore what it truly takes to perform at the highest level. But this conversation goes far beyond ranks and exams. After securing AIR 1, he chose to pursue physics at the deepest level , moving from IIT Bombay to MIT, completing his PhD at UC Berkeley, followed by a postdoc at UPenn, and now beginning his next research chapter at UC Santa Barbara. We discuss: • What it really takes to become AIR 1 • The mindset behind sustained excellence • Setbacks and unseen struggles • Research in string theory and recent developments • Criticisms of string theory • The role of Machine Learning in theoretical physics • Whether AI could solve quantum gravity • Do great scientists necessarily perform well in exams? • And his future plans This episode is for every student, researcher, and ambitious mind trying to balance performance with purpose.
