Our Values

Commitment

We are committed to asking exciting questions and producing the highest possible quality of science.

听

Communication

Good communication is the lifeblood of our lab, and the goal of all our research is to be disseminated to the broader scientific community.
听

Collaboration

Our work is inherently interdisciplinary, so we maintain excellent collaborative relationships with several labs with complementary interests.

Respect

We respect ourselves, our lab mates, and our broader scientific and non-scientific communities.

Our Commitment to Diversity

We understand that听diversity in听identities and lived experiences听is essential to excellence. We听recognize that trainees with different identities and backgrounds face specific challenges and biases, both unintentional and targeted. In our lab, we are committed to creating and continuously improving听 an inclusive, supportive environment for people of all racial identities, socioeconomic backgrounds, political, religious and non-religious beliefs and sexual and gender identities. We work to educate ourselves about identities different than our own, and to uplift those who face听structural听discrimination, exclusion and bias.听
