Southern was in 1990 een van die wenners van die Gairdner Foundation International Award.<ref>[http://science.bard.edu/biology/ferguson/course/bio310/student_presentations/Southern_1975.pdf A web page on Southern blotting (with his photograph)] {{Webarchive|date=22 May 2011|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110522044742/http://science.bard.edu/biology/ferguson/course/bio310/student_presentations/Southern_1975.pdf}}</ref> In 1998 is hy met die Royal Medalje van die [[Royal Society]] van Londen bekroon. Hy is in 2003 die titel Knight Bachelor verleen vir sy werk in die ontwikkeling van DNS mikroarray tegnologie. In 2005 is hy saam met [[Alec Jeffreys]] van die [[Universiteit van Leicester]] bekroon met die gesogte Albert Lasker-Toekenning vir Kliniese Mediese Navorsing, vir hulle uitvinding van die Southern-klad. In 2005 het hy die Vereniging van Biomolekulêre Hulpbron Fasiliteite Toekenning vir uitstaande bydraes tot Biomolekulêre Tegnologie verkry.<ref>{{Webaanhaling|url=http://royalsociety.org/page.asp?id=1750}}</ref> Sy nominasie vir die [[Royal Society]] lui:
Dr. Southern has done pioneering work on the organization of [[Nucleic acid sequence|DNA sequences]] in chromosomes. Apart from studies on crab poly-AT carried out in the early 1960s, Southern was the first to determine the [[nucleotide]] sequence of a [[eukaryotic]] chromosomal [[DNA]] fraction, demonstrating that a guinea pig 'satellite' had an unexpectedly simple repetitive structure based on a sequence of six nucleotides. In mouse satellite DNA he showed both short and long range [[periodic function|periodicities]]. These and other studies on [[Repeated sequence (DNA)|repetitive DNA]] he showed both short and long range periodicities. These and other studies on repetitive DNA sequences enabled him to suggest how [[Noncoding DNA|non-coding]] [[chromsome|chromosomal]] DNA may have evolved. Southern has devised valuable methods for DNA analysis. His 'blot' technique, for the identification of specific sequences among large populations of fragments generated by [[endonuclease]]s, has found extremely widespread and important applications. He has also made important observations on the differential [[Transcription (genetics)|transcription]] of DNA sequences into RNA, and on patterns of [[DNA methylation]].<ref name=royal>{{cite web |url=https://collections.royalsociety.org/DServe.exe?dsqIni=Dserve.ini&dsqApp=Archive&dsqDb=Catalog&dsqCmd=show.tcl&dsqSearch=(RefNo==%27EC%2F1983%2F34%27) |title = EC/1983/34: Southern, Edwin Mellor |publisher=The Royal Society |archivedate=17 April 2015 |archiveurl=http://www.webcitation.org/6XrLbA04o |location=London}}</ref>
