Attributions
This is the area in our wiki dedicated to thanking everyone that really made this project and trip to Boston happen. Many institutions, companies and individuals have given us immense support and should be recognized. A very special thank you to the Readiness Acceleration and Innovation Network for allowing us to use their labs and other facilities free of charge for this project and a huge thank you to Judy Nguyen, our mentor and instructor. Without her guidance and training there would really be no Tacoma RAINmakers.
During the 2018 competition, we successfully performed a wide array of tasks, including developing a paper-based arsenic test ticket, coding an elegant wiki page, performing outreach, and conducting interviews with industry experts. It’s important that we recognize those who have helped our team so much.
