Timeline
Ranganathan Gregoire Yogeshwar (born 18 May 1959) is a Luxembourgish physicist and science journalist based in Germany.
He started gaining attention at the end of the 1980s in the German-speaking area for his science documentaries that were often coupled with critical analysis and prognoses of the societal effects of research in the natural sciences.
Yogeshwar grew up in Bangalore, India and Luxembourg and went to primary school in both places.
His father is an Indian engineer and his mother a Luxembourgish art historian.
He has a younger sister and a twin brother, Pierre Kalyana Yogeshwar, who is also a physicist.
His grandfather was mathematician and librarian S. R. Ranganathan, the developer of the colon classification.
Growing up, he spoke Luxembourgish, German, French, English, Tamil, Kannada, Hindi and Malayalam (the latter three to communicate with his housekeeper, teacher, and gardener, respectively).

The WDR developed the show Quarks und Co. for Yogeshwar, based on the same concept as the Wissenschaftsshow, and he led this show from 1993 to 2018, before handing it over to Mai Thi Nguyen-Kim and Ralph Caspers.
From 1995 to 2001, he was the acting Head of the Science Programmes division of the WDR, and in 2001, he replaced Alfred Thorwarth as the head of the same division, remaining in that post till 2018.
