Code of Conduct

The IReNA code of conduct applies to all participants in IReNA and IReNA sponsored activities. The goals of IReNA are to advance and disseminate scientific knowledge; to inspire, educate, and train a new generation of scientists and STEM workers; and to broaden participation to underrepresented groups. The code of conduct is not only a set of basic standards of behavior that reflect our shared values. It is also an essential part of the IReNA approach that enables us to be successful and reach our goals. 
Please Read the Code of Conduct
