The Colworth Medal[1][2] is awarded annually by the Biochemical Society to an outstanding research biochemist under the age of 35[3] and working mainly in the United Kingdom. The award was established by Tony James FRS (Unilever Research) and Henry Arnstein (Biochemical Society) and takes its name from a Unilever research laboratory near Bedford in the UK, Colworth House.
The medal was first presented in 1963[4] and many of those receiving the award are recognised as outstanding scientists achieving international reputations.[5] The lecture is published in Biochemical Society Transactions, previously Colworth Medal lectures were published in The Biochemical Journal.
