The Max Delbrück Medal has been awarded annually since 1992 by the Max Delbrück Center for Molecular Medicine (German: Max - Delbrück - Centrum für Molekulare Medizin or MDC). Named after the German biophysicist Max Delbrück, it is presented in Berlin to an outstanding scientist on the occasion of the annual "Berlin Lecture on Molecular Medicine", which the MDC organizes together with other Berlin research institutions and Bayer HealthCare. The award recipient usually delivers a lecture after the award.
