Our valueS

Our mission in the Bhatia lab is to innovate, integrate, and impact

We believe in pursuing new ideas, in integrating science across disciplines, in working in teams, and in striving to expand the horizons of scientific knowledge and technical innovation. We measure our impact by the technologies we develop, the phenomena we discover, the patient lives we improve, and the scientific careers we cultivate. We are committed to creating an inclusive lab environment that is diverse and interdisciplinary, that supports all perspectives, and that prioritizes health and well-being.

As a group we strive:

  • To be fearless, curious, and kind

  • To be collaborative and generous with our time and resources

  • To pursue science that is excellent, rigorous, and true, while training the next generation of scientific leaders

  • To foster the personal, academic, and professional growth of our members while having fun

  • To be inclusive, respectful, and dedicated to continuous self-education and community action on diversity, inclusion, and racial justice in our communities
