The Professor and the Nyholm Prize

Professor Martyn Poliakoff has picked up a top award for his work on The Periodic Table Of Videos.



The Royal Society of Chemistry awarded him the Nyholm Prize for Education.

In our latest video, The Professor discusses how he missed out on meeting Ron Nyholm in rather tragic circumstances.



The silver medal is quite an impressive sight!

Next week Professor Poliakoff - who already has his medal, trophy, etc - will give a special lecture at the University of Nottingham as part of the whole prize-receiving tradition.
