The Corday–Morgan Medal and Prize is a prestigious award that is made by the Royal Society of Chemistry (and from the award's inception in 1949 until 1980 by the Chemical Society) for the most meritorious contributions to experimental chemistry, including computer simulation.[1] The prize was named after chemist Sir Gilbert Morgan and his wife Mary-Louise Corday [2] [3] Up to three prizes are awarded annually.[1]
