    These are rules that are good for any team, not just for academic labs. 1. Encourage Critique But Not Competition 2. Model “Failure” and Celebrate Honesty 3. Be Approachable 4. Facilitate Communication and Ensure There Are Minimal Barriers to Asking Questions 5. A Supportive Lab Is a Social Lab 6. Give Timely (and Constructive) Feedback 7. Respect Others' Time and Expertise 8. Have Career Conversations That Cover Both Academic and Nonacademic Paths, Prioritizing Individuals' Career Goals and Aspirations 9. Keep Track of, Suggest, and Create (Tailored) Opportunities for Trainees 10. Be An Advocate
