Scientific discovery relies on curiosity, creativity, innovation, and multiple perspectives. Our group is committed to fostering an inclusive environment where people from all backgrounds thrive, because it is the ethical thing to do and our collective diversity empowers a diversity of ideas. We value and promote collaboration within and outside our group, and we celebrate/welcome multiple approaches and points of view. These guiding principles lead to excellence in research, and promote a congenial environment.
