Awarded by the Colloid and Interface Science Group
The group supports and promotes colloid and interface science, which is an important area of knowledge which underpins a very wide variety of both fundamental and applied science. In recent years, to present a more coherent front for colloid science, particularly in the UK, the group works closely with its sister group in the SCI, and all meetings of either group are now co-sponsored.

About this prize
The Sir Eric Rideal Lecture is a late-career or 鈥渓ife-time achievement award鈥�, which recognises and honours an individual who has made a sustained and distinguished contribution to colloid and interface science in the UK. Prior to its establishment by the Joint Colloids Group in 2006, it was known as the Founder鈥檚 Lecturer.
Authority in Colloid, Surface and Interface Science with a professional career of more than 30 years鈥� duration (after completion of postgraduate study).
Candidates need not be UK-based necessarily, but they will have had sustained and significant connections with the UK colloid, interface and surface science community and a marked impact upon work in the UK.
Sir Eric Rideal was one of the founders of catalysis and gave his name to the Eley Rideal mechanism. He is known for his work at the Colloid Science Laboratory, which he set up in Cambridge University in the 1930s. of the 番茄社区/SCI joint colloid group medals and the names behind them.
