# Medalla Nacional de la Ciència

La Medalla Nacional de Ciència dels Estats Units (en anglès "National Medal of Science") és un premi atorgat pel president nord-americà a persones que han fet importants contribucions en l'avanç de la ciència o l'enginyeria. Els premis es lliuren en sis camps, ciències socials i de la conducta, biologia, química, enginyeria, matemàtiques i ciències físiques. El Comitè de la Medalla Nacional de Ciència, està sota la Fundació Nacional de Ciència (en anglès National Science Foundation, NSF) que és responsable de recomanar els candidats al president.
