Our research group is newly established and growing, offering a rare opportunity to shape our culture collaboratively from the outset. We are building an environment that is inclusive, intellectually open, and rooted in shared values of respect, transparency, and curiosity.
Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion (EDI) are central to our ethos. We are committed to fostering a supportive and equitable workplace where diverse perspectives are valued and everyone can contribute meaningfully. We recognise that innovation in science thrives when a broad range of voices and experiences are brought to the table.
Collaboration lies at the core of how we work—within the lab, across departments, and with partners in academia, industry, and beyond. We actively cultivate a collegial atmosphere that prioritises cooperation over competition. Our group does not endorse excessive peer pressure or competitive individualism; instead, we focus on building a community of mutual support, where knowledge is shared freely and success is collective.
We welcome a range of career aspirations and support diverse trajectories. Whether in research, industry, policy, or entrepreneurship, we believe in empowering group members to pursue impactful careers and provide tailored mentoring and development opportunities to support these goals.
As the group continues to evolve, we are committed to regularly reflecting on and refining our practices to ensure we remain an adaptive, open, and inclusive team—one that is not only excellent in science, but also intentional in how we work together.
