The Morton Lecture
- The Morton Lecture was instituted in 1978 to commemorate the late R.A. Morton following an appeal by his colleagues and friends.
- The lecturer should have made an outstanding contribution to lipid biochemistry.
- The Johnston Professor of Biochemistry in the University of Liverpool sits with the Awards Committee when the Morton lecturer is selected.
- The lecture is given biennially at a meeting of the Society and at the University of Liverpool.
- The lecturer receives an Honorarium of £2,000, and travelling expenses are paid.
