Code of Ethics

In my lab we are committed to holding ourselves and one another to the highest standards of scientific integrity and professional ethics. We commit to creating a safe and inclusive working environment that is free from harassment and discrimination. We believe in open dialogue, conducted with honesty and civility, in a manner that respects all view points. All members of the lab are expected to uphold these standards of behavior.


Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion Statement

In my lab we are committed to providing a welcoming and safe community for everyone, and to fostering an intellectual and scholarly environment that promotes free exchange of ideas. We believe that every individual brings a valuable voice, shaped by unique experiences, backgrounds, and perspectives. We commit to practices and policies that support all individuals, regardless of: race, nationality, or ethnicity; sexual orientation; gender identity or expression; religious beliefs; socioeconomic backgrounds; disabilities or medical conditions; migratory status; marital status; or age. We recognize the problematic past of natural history as a discipline and endeavor to work towards a more diverse, equitable, and inclusive future.
