- **Event Name**: Clifford Paterson Prize Lecture: Weighing molecules with light
- **Event Start and End Date**: Mon, 09 Feb, 2026 at 06:00 pm
- **Event Description**: Professor Philipp Kukura FRS, winner of the Clifford Paterson Medal, will deliver his prize lecture on 9 February 2026, at the Royal Society in London, at 6.30pm.

The Clifford Paterson Medal and Lecture is awarded biennially for outstanding contributions in the field of engineering.
Professor Philipp Kukura FRS is recognised with the Clifford Paterson Medal for his work pioneering and democratising mass photometry, a novel means of mass measurement for single biomolecules. He is Professor of Chemistry at the Kavli Institute for Nanoscience Discovery at the University of Oxford.

Only a very small number of methods have been developed to measure the mass of molecules over the past century. In this lecture, Professor Kukura will describe the development of mass photometry, a method that measures the mass of molecules and viruses by shining light at them.

He will explain the principles of operation and show how this technique is being used broadly in academia and industry. He will present how mass photometry is being used to understand the basis of disease and to aid in the development of next generation therapeutics.

This lecture is free to attend. Registration is recommended if attending in person, otherwise availability cannot be guaranteed. Doors will open to the public at 6.00pm.

The lecture will also be livestreamed on the Royal Society website: https://royalsociety.org/science-events-and-lectures/2026/02/clifford-paterson-prize-lecture/ and on the Royal Society YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/@royalsociety.
