I love all your videos, and now I'm wondering whether if I email this facility I'll be able to buy me one of those ties. 44 year old stay at home mums can be geeks too!!
I think the lab is in Dusseldorf, but Heidelberg has a great lab, too. Plus, Mannheim has a huge Chemical plant where they store and destroy tons of stuff, and it's not far from where I live. Professor, if you come to Heidelberg, I'm totally taking you out for jaegerschnitzel and heffeweissen! :D
hmmm .... it seems that the professor need to show off his tie at a night club. Or just his student for an opportunity to get a boost for their grades.
What a delight! I agree with the other posters: that's a handsome tie they sent you. It's not often you see a tie that's explicitly science-y and yet has a good sense of style about it.
And I don't know -- "Copernicium" is starting to grow on me!
I don't know if he has nerves, he's a professor so I'd imagine he'd be used to giving speeches in front of large groups of people or cameras. Could be parkinsons? Hes a pretty old dude.
Some peoples hands as they get older just simply shake when they're trying to hold small or light objects, thats how it is. he probably won't shake holding a cup of tea but may do handling keys. not a big deal.
Can I have your old tie prof? I do school science displays in Ireland and it would go down a treat. Have had students mention to me about your post before and it would be great to be able to say I was wearing your old tie!
He never mentioned having Parkinsons, I do remember one of his videos where he explains he likes to use his hands to emphasise what he is saying, and that he can't really keep his hands still ;>
I think is because he's just not young anymore, i've got a teacher who is quite like him in that sense, I that's why he's got some very bad handwritting
i once saw that in one of your videos, on some african community you were showing the elements and changing their names to things the people there liked or dislike but not the real thing like "that yellow metalic rock is gold", isnt that awkwards?
Although a German nerd, I haven't heard of the GSI before. They made Copernicium and also Roentgenium, Darmstadtium (duh), Meitnerium, Hassium and Bohrium everything between atomic numbers 107 and 112 within the past 30 years.
The GSI is a GmbH which means a private limited company. I'd have guessed they were tax-funded. I'd love to visit the facility (and sport an appropriate tie, of course) when Professor Poliakoff visits.
It's Darmstadtium, because the GSI is located in Wixhausen, which is a suburb of Darmstadt. I've been cycling around there a lot, but I've never been inside the facility. And Hassium, because it's the state of Hessen.
you can see Prof's hand shaking at 1:17 . He might me feeling too cold ! lolzzz

Prof. its time for some chelation. EDTA will help those shakes if they are from heavy metals. if parkinsons, sorry youre SOL.
TheCaptainLulz 2 years ago
Not really. There is a form of intracranial stimulation using electrodes and a pacemaker like device that can drastically reduce the worst shakes.
DrBones666 2 years ago
The shakes are from the heavy metals :(
It is the price we chemist pay. We are not just scientists we are ARTIST! Life without danger is not a life worth living.
