Faraday Medal and Prize

The Faraday Medal of the British Institute of Physics ( IOP) is awarded annually to outstanding experimental physicists with an international reputation. It is named after Michael Faraday. The medal was instituted in 2008 from the 1914 Guthrie Lecture ( named in honor of the founder of Frederick Guthrie IOP ) IOP produced, which in turn was replaced in 1965 by a Guthrie Medal. It is one of the main prizes of the IOP and is worth 1,000 pounds.

There is also the Michael Faraday Award of the Royal Society, which is also connected with a medal, and the Faraday Medal of the Royal Society of Chemistry ( RSC) of electric chemist and the Institution of Electric Engineers ( IEE).
