Imageomics Code of Conduct
As members of the Imageomics community, we agree to maintain an environment where every person feels welcome to be their true self and speak from the heart. As such, all members of the Imageomics Institute community agree to abide by the principles outlined in our Code of Conduct.
Imageomics Code of Conduct
We agree as individuals and as a group to:
- Listen to understand. When one person talks, others listen.
- Speak to be understood. We use lay terms and are patient with people who are not experts in our specific field. We are all learning, no matter who we are.
- Embrace “Yes and...” Focus on possibilities instead of obstacles. Embrace others' ideas and honor divergence of thought.
- Take space / make space. Those who tend to talk a lot are intentional about letting others talk first, while those who tend to hold back are intentional about contributing.
- Beware of blind spots. We do not know what we do not know. We are vigilant for differences among our experiences and positions.
- Respect time. Once a meeting or session time concludes, we need to move on. Be proactive in scheduling time for follow-up and ongoing in-depth conversations.
- Care for each other. We bring our full selves to the community, and we look out for each other wholeheartedly.
AI Use Policy
Borrowed from CRA.
- Allowable use of AI tools that do not share or use the data for training.
- Requires permission if recording others. Language to use when requesting permission:
“We would like to use <insert tool name here> during this discussion to assist with note-taking. <insert tool name here> records and transcribes audio and can produce a summary of the discussion. The audio and transcription will only be saved and used internally. Please let us know if you object to the use of <insert tool name here>.”
Scope
We abide by these principles in all Imageomics spaces, including but not limited to digital and in-person meetings, formal and informal gatherings, online discussion forums and chat spaces, and field and lab work.
Acts of misconduct are prohibited. Those found to engage in misconduct will be subject to dismissal from the project and further actions as directed by the guidelines of the employers, federal law, and the place of incidence.
Reporting Misconduct
If you believe you have experienced or witnessed misconduct in an Imageomics setting, please take these steps:
- Document the incident.

Privacy will be protected to the greatest extent possible.
