Der Perl-UNC Neuroscience Prize ist ein Wissenschaftspreis der University of North Carolina auf dem Gebiet der Neurowissenschaften zum Gedenken an Edward R. Perl († 2014). Der Preis ist (Stand 2017) mit 20.000 US-Dollar dotiert. Sieben seiner 29 Preisträger haben später einen Nobelpreis gewonnen (Stand Oktober 2021).
