The James Joule Medal and Prize is awarded by the Institute of Physics. It was established in 2008,[1] and was named in honour of James Prescott Joule, British physicist and brewer. The award is made for distinguished contributions to applied physics. The medal is silver and is accompanied by a prize of £1000.
Joule's apparatus for measuring the mechanical equivalent of heat
The medal gained international recognition in 2018 when it was awarded to Sri Lankan scientist Ravi Silva[2] of University of Surrey,[3] whose work in part led to the establishment of the Sri Lanka Institute of Nanotechnology (SLINTec).[4]
