Diverse Minds for Science
Our lab is founded on the belief that diversity and inclusivity is key to scientific innovation. Just as our brain is composed of diverse cell types forming functional circuits, our lab thrives on the contributions of people from various backgrounds. We value innovation and resilience of individuals, and we equally appreciate teamwork in our pursuit of exciting science. Therefore, we are committed to building a diverse and inclusive community that collectively seeks to push the boundaries of science. Science is challenging and often filled with failed ideas and experiments, but we love it! Through constructive feedback and cooperative learning, we help each other become the best scientists we can be. We welcome talented individuals from all walks of life to join us in our scientific quest.
