# Wohlfarth Lectureship

The Wohlfarth Memorial Lecture, and the Wohlfarth Lectureship, is a lecture and prize given at the UK-based Institute of Physics' annual Magnetism Conference. It is named after Professor Erich Peter Wohlfarth, in honour of his "outstanding contribution [...] to the field of magnetism". It has been awarded since 1989.
