Science is hard and, often, very frustrating. Learning the science profession and making scientific discoveries requires a significant amount of commitment and effort. We believe that the best science arises from a balance of dedication and well-being. Therefore, we promote the physical and mental health of each team member, creating an environment where long-term productivity and wellness go hand in hand.
We attempt to create an inclusive and supportive research environment that promotes research excellence, professional growth, and personal development. Our lab is a welcoming space that values and empowers every member to contribute their unique perspectives and skills.
