History
Early Days
Not much is known about the professor during his early days. He spent the latter of his life in advance robotics and physics to develop and produce brand new weapons for Union. At one point of his life, became a teacher at a university and continued to teach and work with his student, Billy Katigiri. He also somehow met Leesa Kujo (Sumeragi Lee Noriega) and have either collaborated or spent time with her and Billy as a trio (since he's mentioned unspecific info spending time together).
Anti-Gundam Investigative Squad
During A.D. 2307, Professor Eifman joined the Union's Anti-Gundam Investigative Squad as their technical chief and adviser to aid in capturing the Gundams. Having Billy at his side, they custom modified Graham Aker's Flag and renamed it as Over Flag. Eventually the modifications expanded to an entire squadron of Over Flags to combat against the Gundams. When Graham asks him whether the Gundams' action may bring the world to an end, Eifman does not deny the fact.

Eventually the modifications expanded to an entire squadron of Over Flags to combat against the Gundams While investigating over Celestial Being, Eifman made a revelation. He realized somehow the correlation between the Jupiter incident 120 years ago and Celestial Being gave Eifman an epiphany over Aeolia Schenberg's philosophical intentions.
Death & Aftermath
While investigating over Celestial Being, Eifman made a revelation. He realized somehow the correlation between the Jupiter incident 120 years ago and Celestial Being gave Eifman an epiphany over Aeolia Schenberg's true philosophical intentions; his revelations were too late. His own computer monitor revealed a message,"You have witnessed too much." Shortly after, the Thrones attacked and Eins fired its GN Mega Launcher, vaporizing him before he could reveal the truth to anyone.
After his death, Billy became the head of mobile suit development and he had discovered some of Eifman's handwritten notes on CB's GN-tech. He worked a theoretical system that Billy applied into Graham's (now called Mr. Bushido) new mobile suit, the GNX-U02X Masurao.
