Culture at the bench and beyond.

  • Innovative Science

    A diverse, equitable, and inclusive workplace is key. We work to uplift one another, both inside and outside the lab, to facilitate a successful, respectful and welcoming lab environment.

  • Social Mammals

    Once a month, a lab member organizes a happy hour. It is a way to learn more about how to best support this lab member both inside and outside the lab. Some things to share are hidden talent, fun facts, upbringing, or unseen barriers.

  • Beyond Lab Meetings

    Every 6 months, the lab watches a good or bad sci-fi movie together and discusses its relationship to society and culture.

  • Community Service

    The lab collectively participates in community service every 3 months.

    Engagement with scientific societies, such as SACNAS or ABRCMS, is encouraged.
