Editorial: The Roy Porter Prize

The Editors are delighted to include in this issue articles by two previous winners of the Roy Porter Prize, Julie Hipperson (2013) and Erica Storm (2014). The Prize, offered by the Society for the Social History of Medicine, and named in honour of the late Professor Roy Porter, recognises outstanding work by undergraduate or postgraduate students in the social history of medicine, broadly defined. Prizewinners are offered the opportunity to submit their work to be peer-reviewed for Social History of Medicine, and for many authors this has been the first step in a successful career in the field. A full list of winners can be found on the Society's website at https://sshm.org/the-roy-porter-prize-articles/ and are freely accessible on the journal's platform at https://academic.oup.com/shm/pages/porter_prize
