Lab culture
We value the participation of every member of our group and work to ensure all members have an enjoyable and fulfilling experience, both professionally and personally. Accordingly, all members of the group are expected to show respect and courtesy to others at all times, and we have a group Code of Conduct to guide how we work together to achieve this.
