Our research group aims to train students to excel as both a scientist and a person. We realize and value the importance of diverse backgrounds and ideas in generating new scientific knowledge, and in promoting a healthy work environment. We value freedom of expression, civil discourse, and diversity in opinions, research, teaching, and life.
We seek the generation of new scientific knowledge, the development of the next generation of scientists, fostering the scientific community and educating the public in our work.
