Reference excerpt

Miguel Ángel Martínez-González (born in 1957 in Málaga, Spain) is a Spanish medical doctor, epidemiologist, professor, and nutrition researcher He has been often a visiting scholar at Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health (Dept. Nutrition). Martínez-González was the Founder and Chair (until September 2022) of the Department of Preventive Medicine and Public Health at University of Navarra at the Medical School. He was also the Principal Investigator of an Advanced Research Grant of the European Research Council for funding the PREDIMED-Plus trial. Martínez-González has been also the Founder and 'Principal Investigator' (until June 2022) of the SUN cohort study, and he was (2006-2013) the Coordinator of the several centers included in the PREDIMED Network (a large clinical trial assessing the effects of a Mediterranean diet on the primary prevention of Cardiovascular disease. He is one of the best known worldwide experts in the Mediterranean diet and has comprehensively studied the nutritional determinants of obesity in the Spanish population. His self-help book in Spanish “Salud a ciencia cierta” (Planeta, 2018) provides useful tools to improve healthy habits and food choices. He was awarded with the Grace Goldsmith Award (American College of Nutrition, 2013 and the Rankin-Skatrud lecture (Univ. of Wisconsin, 2016). In September 2016 he was appointed Adjunct Professor at the Department of Nutrition of Harvard TH Chan School of Public Health. He is the co-PI together with Frank B.

Worked examples

Example 1 — a first encounter with Miguel Ángel Martínez-González

Start with the simplest possible case. Write down what Miguel Ángel Martínez-González claims or describes in one sentence, then invent the smallest concrete situation in which that sentence is true. In astronomy, 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 Miguel Ángel Martínez-González 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 Miguel Ángel Martínez-González 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 Miguel Ángel Martínez-González

In research: Miguel Ángel Martínez-González appears in astronomy 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 Miguel Ángel Martínez-González 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: Miguel Ángel Martínez-González is common in secondary-school and first-year university syllabi. It links to neighbouring topics 1957 births, 20th-century Spanish medical doctors, 21st-century Spanish medical doctors, so understanding it makes those chapters shorter.
In everyday life: Look for Miguel Ángel Martínez-González 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.
