  • ^"Professor says World Cup trophy cannot be solid gold". His brother is the screenwriter and director, Stephen Poliakoff.

    Poliakoff's paternal grandfather, Joseph, was a Russian Jew who experienced first-hand the effects of the communist revolution in Russia from the family's Moscow flat across from the Kremlin.

    While an undergraduate at Cambridge, Poliakoff met and became close friends with Tony Judt, who later became a widely-known historian and writer.

    Career and research

    In 1972, Poliakoff moved to Newcastle University and in 1979 was appointed a lecturer at the University of Nottingham, where he was subsequently promoted to professor in 1991.

    Education

    Poliakoff was educated at followed by King"s College, Cambridge graduating with a Bachelor of Arts degree in 1969 and Doctor of Philosophy degree in 1973 under the supervision of J. J. Turner. The project has now expanded to cover molecules; there are also several special videos about other chemical topics.

    Poliakoff was appointed Commander of the Order of the British Empire (Commander of the Order of the British Empire) in the 2008 New Year Honours and is a member of the Advisory Council for the Campaign for Science and Engineering since 2008. Poliakoff was a life-long friend of Tony Judt and Poliakoff produced a web eulogy of Judt in 2010[16].

      Honours and awards

      Poliakoff was awarded the Meldola Medal and Prize from the Royal Society of Chemistry in 1976. In 2012, Poliakoff was elected a Fellow of the Academia Europaea and in 2013, an Associate Fellow of TWAS, the World Academy of Science.
