Portland Press Excellence in Science Award

The Portland Press Excellence in Science Award, instituted in 1964 as the Novartis Medal and Prize, is awarded annually by the Biochemical Society to recognize notable research in any branch of biochemistry undertaken in the UK or Republic of Ireland. The prize consists of a medal and a £3000 cash award. The winner is invited to present a lecture at a Society conference and submit an article to one of the Society's publications.[1]Notable recipients include the Nobel laureates John E. Walker, Paul Nurse, Sydney Brenner, César Milstein, Peter D. Mitchell, Rodney Porter, and John Cornforth.

The Novartis Medal and Prize was last presented in 2019 and is to be replaced from 2021 by the Portland Press Excellence in Science Award. Portland Press is the publishing arm of the Biochemical Society. [2]
