DIBSI Code of Conduct

All DIBSI attendees are expected to agree with the following code of conduct. We will enforce this code as needed. We expect cooperation from all attendees to help ensuring a safe environment for everybody.

The Quick Version

DIBSI is dedicated to providing a harassment-free experience for everyone, regardless of gender, gender identity and expression, age, sexual orientation, disability, physical appearance, body size, race, or religion (or lack thereof). We do not tolerate harassment of participants in any form. Sexual language and imagery is generally not appropriate for any DIBSI venue.

The Less Quick Version

Harassment includes offensive verbal comments related to gender, gender identity and expression, age, sexual orientation, disability, physical appearance, body size, race, religion, sexual images in public spaces, deliberate intimidation, stalking, following, harassing photography or recording, sustained disruption of talks or other events, inappropriate physical contact, and unwelcome sexual attention.

Attendees asked to stop any harassing behavior are expected to comply immediately.

If you are being harassed, notice that someone else is being harassed, or have any other concerns, please contact Titus Brown immediately. If Titus is the cause of your concern, please see the UC Davis ombuds office. You may also contact Sue McClatchy, Susan.McClatchy@jax.org, a Senior Program Manager of Bioinformatics Education at The Jackson Laboratory if you would like to discuss an incident informally.

We expect participants to follow these guidelines at any DIBSI-related event.
