General Support

We would like to thank all of the members of the Lynch Lab for their general assistance. While all troubleshooting and experiments not mentioned below were done by team members, procedural and technical questions and corrections were addressed by the Lynch Lab. We also, would not have been able to do half as much without the full support of the Pratt School of Engineering, the Duke Bass Connections program, and Duke University.

Design Support

Original design and concepts were created by team members. Technical review and questions were with help from Cassio Fontes from the Chilkoti Group as well as John Decker and Mike Lynch from the Lynch Lab.

Experimental Support

All experiments were carried out by students or were performed while students learned to perform the experiment. One such example was the beginning of the LFA trials; no team members had used the system currently used to build and test LFAs and so the beginning tests were done by members of the Chilkoti Group while team members assisted and learned the new technique.

Our group would also like to thank Bryan Watts and dfghj for taking the time to train some of our members on machines necessary for the completion of our project including a homogenizer and an SPR assay machine.

Funding Support

None of our research would have been possible without the financial support of the Lord Foundation, the Duke Bass Connections Program, and etc.
