The Gabor Medal and Prize , formerly known as the Duddell Medal and Prize, is an international award in applied physics awarded by the Institute of Physics .
The Duddell Medal and Prize was established by the Institute of Physics in 1923 in honor of . In 2008, the Medal and Denes Gabor Prize was renamed and became known. The Duddell medal was bronze, the Gabor medal was silver. Both the Duddell medal and the Gabor medal were attached and are attached a cash prize of Β£ 1,000 , as well as a certificate. A laureate may be invited to give a lecture at the Institute of Physics. Among the awarded 11 Nobel Prize winners .
