Our Lab Values

Who we are:

• We celebrate diversity and bring together scientists of different backgrounds.
• We value the particular strengths, skillsets and working preferences of individuals.
• We develop independence and support individuals who wish to branch out into new or related disciplines.
• We are not insular as individuals and do not view our lab as an island.

How we work:

• We integrate small projects to answer bigger picture questions.
• We are physically and electronically approachable whenever practicable.
• We believe in the principles of open science and develop skills to implement them in everything we do.
• We do not deny our failures, and interrogate our mistakes so we can build better strategies for success.
• We finish tasks in a timely fashion for each project.
• We communicate our findings through whichever medium is appropriate.
• We are passionate about our jobs but not to the detriment of our lives.
