NoteThe source confirms Christian Schafmeister received the 2005 Feynman Prize for experimental work from the Foresight Institute. However, Christopher Levins is listed as receiving the 'Foresight Distinguished Student Award,' not the 'Feynman Prize 2005 — Experiment.' The record incorrectly lists both as joint recipients of the same Feynman Prize for Experiment, when in fact only Schafmeister received that specific prize. The date is confirmed as 2005 (October presentation, which aligns with 2005-11 in the record). The amount ($5000) and funder (Foresight Institute) cannot be verified from the source text. This is a partial confirmation with a significant error in the grantee field.
