Медаль Копли (англ. Copley Medal) — старейшая и наиболее престижная награда Лондонского королевского общества, старейшая из присуждаемых в мире в настоящее время научных наград^[1][2]. Присуждается ежегодно за выдающиеся достижения в научных исследованиях, тематика которых чередуется в нечётные и чётные годы соответственно между областями физических и биологических наук^[1], при этом награждаются не только физики и биологи, но и химики, геологи, математики, медики и другие^[3]. Лауреату вручаются медаль и денежная премия в 25 000 фунтов стерлингов^[4]. Среди удостоившихся медали Копли — Альберт Эйнштейн и Чарльз Дарвин^[1][5].

История

Медаль учредил сэр Годфри Копли (1653—1709), богатый землевладелец, любитель науки и член Королевского общества^[en]*. В своём завещании он распорядился учредить фонд, проценты с которого должны ежегодно направляться, по усмотрению Королевского общества, на поощрение научной деятельности. Кроме медали, лауреат получал денежную премию в размере 100 фунтов.

Первую премию получил в 1731 году Стивен Грей, за открытие передачи электричества на расстояние. Вторая премия (1732) досталась ему же. С тех пор премия, за редким исключением, присуждалась каждый год; среди её лауреатов 60 обладателей Нобелевской премии (18 — по физике, 17 — по химии, 25 — по медицине).

Список лауреатов

Значком помечены лауреаты премии Копли, одновременно являющиеся Нобелевскими лауреатами.
