Reference excerpt

The Lurie Prize in Biomedical Sciences recognizes outstanding achievement by a promising young scientist in biomedical research. It is awarded annually by the Foundation for the National Institutes of Health. Established in 2013 the award is worth $100,000 and was made possible by the gift of FNIH board member Ann Lurie. Prizewinners are selected by a jury of six distinguished biomedical researchers from a list of nominations.

Worked examples

Example 1 — a first encounter with Lurie Prize in Biomedical Sciences

Start with the simplest possible case. Write down what Lurie Prize in Biomedical Sciences claims or describes in one sentence, then invent the smallest concrete situation in which that sentence is true. In science, the smallest case is usually a single object, a single equation or a single measurement. Check that every symbol or term in your sentence has a meaning in that case.

Example 2 — changing one variable

Take the situation from Example 1 and change exactly one quantity: double it, halve it, or set it to zero. Predict what should happen to Lurie Prize in Biomedical Sciences before you calculate. Comparing your prediction with the result is the fastest way to find out whether you understand the idea or only the words.

Example 3 — an exam-style question

Typical questions about Lurie Prize in Biomedical Sciences ask you to (a) state it precisely, (b) apply it to given data, and (c) explain a limitation. Practise writing all three answers in under five minutes; the third part is what separates a full-mark answer from an average one.

Applications of Lurie Prize in Biomedical Sciences

In research: Lurie Prize in Biomedical Sciences appears in science research whenever the underlying quantities have to be modelled precisely. Papers usually cite it as a starting assumption and then explore where it breaks down.
In technology and industry: Engineering practice reuses Lurie Prize in Biomedical Sciences in design rules, simulations and safety margins. Knowing the idea lets you read a specification sheet and understand why the numbers look the way they do.
In the classroom: Lurie Prize in Biomedical Sciences is common in secondary-school and first-year university syllabi. It links to neighbouring topics American science and technology awards, Awards established in 2013, Biomedical awards, so understanding it makes those chapters shorter.
In everyday life: Look for Lurie Prize in Biomedical Sciences outside the textbook — in sport, cooking, traffic, electronics or the sky above you. An example you found yourself is remembered far longer than one you were given.
