NoteThe source text confirms most key fields: Michelle Simmons received the Foresight Institute Feynman Prize for the experimental category in 2015, and the prize amount is stated as US $5000. However, the source does not specify the month of the award (claimed as 2015-11). The article was published on 24 May 2016 and mentions the prizes 'were announced overnight in the US' and 'are for 2015', but does not provide the specific month. The date field is therefore unverifiable rather than confirmed.
