Michael Faraday (1791–1867), after whom the lectureship is named. The Faraday Lectureship Prize, previously known simply as the Faraday Lectureship, is awarded once every two years (approximately) by the Royal Society of Chemistry for "exceptional contributions to physical or theoretical chemistry". [1]
The winner is required to present a lecture as part of the Society's annual programme of public events, which is usually held in January of the following year; during the lecture, the President of the Royal Society awards the medal. [2] Unlike other prizes awarded by the society, the committee has not always publicly provided a rationale.
