People of the Robinson Lab

Lab Values

We believe that science is for everyone. All are welcome in our laboratory team, whatever their gender, race, ethnicity, national origin, age, sexual orientation or identity, education or disability. 

The members of this lab publicly condemn hate within our community.  Specifically, we do not tolerate bigotry, racism, sexism, violence, or harassment of any kind in our lab community or beyond.

We stand and ally ourselves with all LGBTQ, Black, Indigenous, Latinx, and Asian/Pacific Islander communities in their fight for realization of their rights to full inclusion and access.

This team is committed towards building a more diverse and welcoming community in the lab, on campus, and beyond. We will advocate for and elevate the voices of under represented groups in science through course work, invited talks, and open and frequent dialogue. We pledge to continue to work to dismantle the structures and norms of systemic racism within academia, and through these efforts, the world.
