Our Philosophy
Outstanding contributions to science are a product of curiosity, passion, determination and the right environment. The Department of Genetics strives to support early career researchers through extensive training, mentoring and the provision of key resources to enhance their career. To this end we have formed a Mentoring Committee to formalize the training of our Junior PIs and post-docs and an Education Committee that supervise our student group along with our DGS. The Department firmly believes that the path to exceptional science is through creating a supportive and positive environment for all of its trainees and faculty members. The Mentoring Committee continuously drives new and existing initiatives in the Department to this end in collaboration with our post-docs and junior PIs.
