Myron Wyn Evans (b 1950), is a Welsh chemist, most notable for his claims to have developed a theory unifying general relativity, quantum mechanics and electromagnetism. Evans's claims are not accepted by the mainstream physics community.
Evans earned a BSc, PhD and DSc in chemistry at the University of Wales, Aberystwyth. The Royal Society of Chemistry awarded him the Harrison Memorial Prize in 1978 and the Meldola Medal in 1979. He was a Junior Research Fellow at Wolfson College, Oxford, Fellow of the University of Wales, SERC Advanced Fellow at the University of Wales, Aberystwyth, a researcher at IBM Kingston, New York, and a visiting scientist at Cornell Theory Center. He served briefly on the faculty of the Department of Physics at the University of North Carolina at Charlotte but resigned.
