  1. aTeachers included two administrators, i.e., 1 superintendent (2012) and 1 assistant superintendent (2013)
  2. bScientists included professors, other scientists, postdoctoral fellows, undergraduate students, graduate students, and interns in Panama. The exact number in this category was fluid during each cohort and therefore difficult to accurately determine because some did not participate in the entire cohort experience; the numbers reported above are likely a minimum
  3. cOther participants included spouse and photographer (2012), journalists (2013), citizen scientist (2015), and project manager (2012 to 2016)
