In 2011 the Biochemical Society introduced the Centenary Award to replace the Jubilee Lecture. 

The Centenary Award is awarded annually to a biochemist of distinction from any part of the world.

The winner of the award is given:

• The opportunity to present the Sir Frederick Gowland Hopkins Memorial Lecture at a Society conference (the original award and medal are no longer a separate award)
• The opportunity to submit an article to a Society-owned publication.
• £3000 prize money
• The Centenary medal. (The award was designed by the artist Tom Phillips).
