Professor Martyn Poliakoff won the Ron Nyholm prize this year for his contribution to education. In this video on Ron Nyholm, professor Poliakoff describes the prize and pays a really wonderful tribute to Dr. Nyholm. Dr. Nyholm was a Austraian chemist who refined the Valence Shell Electron Pair Repulsion (VSEPR) Theory that describes the shape a molecule takes based on the number of valance bonding electrons.
