We are always keen to hear from talented students and post-docs who would enhance our team. In particular, we value:
Trustworthiness. We take responsibility for our actions and appreciate that the success of others in the lab may depend on us.
Enthusiasm. We are excited about uncovering new biology and are motivated by positive energy within the lab. We value enthusiastic team members who foster a fun working atmosphere. We want to look forward to coming into the lab!
Collegiality. We look out for each other. We respect the time and values of other team members and work together to achieve the lab's goals.
Pride. We are proud to take care of our work to the best of our ability, and take the initiative wherever possible to give others the best opportunity to do the same.
