We believe that scientific progress is primarily driven by:

1. Teamwork: Fostering a mutually beneficial environment where skills and advice are shared to achieve collective success.

2. Scientific Rigor: Ensuring sound quality in research through critical thinking, thorough validation, troubleshooting, and attention to detail.

3. Evolutionary Insight: Exploring our identity as multicellular, eukaryotic organisms and understanding how these traits developed during evolution. This approach provides opportunities to discover novel therapeutic targets for treating conditions such as infections and tumors.

4. Clinical Relevance: Conducting research with the ultimate goal of making breakthrough findings that directly or indirectly contribute to the diagnosis or treatment of human diseases.
