For any logistical problems, message us in your requests channel on Slack or email [email protected] for the fastest response.

For problems with teammates or with the project itself, your mentor is the first stop, and come to us if that doesn't resolve it. For problems with your mentor, come straight to us. Your mentor can end your place on their project by telling you and us, and anything program-level (your standing, certificates, removal from SPAR) is our decision.

If you experience any issues with your mentor or other team members, please reach out to anyone on the Kairos team: Jesse, Agus, Rebecca, or Antonia (Anto). We’re here to support you.

Issues to reach out about could include, but are not limited to:

• Difficulty getting in contact with your mentor or team members
• Insufficient support
• General issues cooperating with your team or mentor
• Unprofessional conduct or inappropriate comments
• Harassment of any kind
• Discrimination of any kind
• Abuse of any kind
• Research misconduct (e.g., plagiarism, fabrication, data manipulation)

The Code of Conduct is the standard we hold everyone to, mentors included, and Rebecca is the named contact for conduct concerns. For research misconduct, see also the Responsible Research Policy. Nobody is penalized for a good-faith report.

If you prefer not to share your name, please feel free to use our anonymous feedback form to report your concerns.
