Spiers Memorial Lectures
乐天堂app下载 Spiers Memorial Award was first presented in 1929 and ran until 2020. It was awarded to an individual who made an outstanding contribution to 乐天堂app下载 field of a Faraday Discussion. Each Spiers Memorial award winner acted as 乐天堂app下载 introductory lecturer to a Faraday Discussion, and up to 2 awards could be awarded per calendar year.
In 2020, as part of a series of changes introduced following an independent review of 乐天堂app下载 Royal Society of Chemistry’s recognition programmes, this award evolved to 乐天堂app下载 Spiers Memorial Lecture, to be given by 乐天堂app下载 introductory lecturer at each Faraday Discussion meeting. Each lecturer will also receive a token of recognition.
A collection of all 乐天堂app下载 past and present Spiers Memorial Introductory Lectures can be found in our .
