Frederick Soddy (1877-1956)
Soddy was a British chemist who worked alongside Ernest Rutherford and carried out pioneering research into radioactive decay.
As a result, Soddy was able to formulate the theory of isotopes, and in 1921 he was awarded the Nobel prize for chemistry.
Aware of the great potential of the energy contained in uranium, he became increasingly concerned about the use of atomic energy and the social responsibility of scientists.
