Summary

The Lawrence Bragg Medal has been awarded by the Society of Crystallographers in Australia and New Zealand since 2012. Presented (usually) in alternate years to a financial member of the Society, it recognises significant contributions towards the development of a branch of science associated with X-ray, neutron or electron diffraction and/or imaging. The recipient presents a lecture at the SCANZ conference when the award is made. Lawrence Bragg, an Australian-born physicist and X-ray crystallographer, was discoverer of Bragg's Law of X-ray diffraction and joint recipient with his father, William Bragg, of the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1915.
