Lab culture

A lab culture is a work in progress that I hope to establish with my team. 
As a PI my starting point will be to embrace the "Ten simple rules towards healthier research labs" by F. T. Maestre​

1: Promote the well-being of your lab members
2: Let people set their own schedules
3: Gratitude is the sign of noble souls
4: Treat your lab members as your teammates
5: Create a collaborative environment within your lab
6: Remember that every lab member is unique
7: Respect working hours, public holidays, and vacations
8: Give credit where credit is due
9: Destigmatize failure and celebrate success
10: Promote the professional development of your lab members
