Banting Lectures
The Banting Lectures, refer to an annual presentation delivered by the recipient of the Banting Medal for Scientific Achievement, and are therefore also known as the Banting Medal for Scientific Achievement Lectures. The award is given to an expert of diabetes and represents the highest scientific honor conferred by the American Diabetes Association. It is named after Canadian physician Sir Frederick Banting, who was a seminal scientist, doctor and Nobel laureate for the co-discovery of insulin. The Banting Lectures should not be confused with the Banting Memorial Lecture, which is also an annual lecture series but organized by Diabetes UK.
