NoteThe source text provides comprehensive information about the Feynman Prizes and lists previous winners going back to 2013, but the record claims a 1998 award. The source does not extend back to 1998, so the specific 1998 award to Ghadiri and Nifiatis cannot be verified from this excerpt. The $5,000 amount for the Experiment Prize is confirmed. The funder identifier 'NPPTvNqRXA' is not mentioned in the source and cannot be verified.
