Values

We embrace diversity, equity and inclusion:  we welcome and respect people of all races, ethnicities, countries of origin, religious beliefs, genders, sexual orientations, and abilities. We do not tolerate harassment or hateful speech. Our group is committed to a positive and helpful environment.

Steve meets regularly with grad students, undergrads, and postdocs. Everyone sees Steve in a scheduled weekly personal meeting during which Steve does his best to be helpful. During the personal meeting, group members raise any issue that’s on their mind -- research and sometimes also personal lives. Recognizing that no single mentoring style exists, Steve is flexible and adapts his mentoring style to the individuality of each group member.
