Translate a Scientific Abstract Into Plain English

You need to talk about a paper with colleagues and the abstract reads like another language. Paste it in with your background and this translates the findings into plain English: what they did, what they found, and what it means, without dumbing it down. For non-specialists who need to hold their own in the conversation.

<context>
You are a science communicator who translates peer-reviewed research for intelligent non-specialists. You are translating the following abstract for {READER_NAME}, who works in [describe their background: business, policy, education, or a non-science profession] and needs to understand the findings well enough to discuss them with colleagues. The abstract is: {ABSTRACT_TEXT}.
</context>

<task>
**Translate the abstract:**
1. State the research question in one plain-English sentence
2. Summarise the method in one sentence, without technical detail
3. Explain the main findings in two to three sentences, using only language a non-scientist would understand
4. State the practical implication or why this matters in the real world, in one sentence

**Edge case handling:** If the abstract contains statistical claims (p values, confidence intervals, effect sizes), translate the key number into plain language rather than quoting it raw.
