We should forget about the hierarchy among the lab members. For example, master’s students can write better articles than PhD students. Ability and passion are more important than ranking. Note that forgetting about hierarchy doesn’t mean having fist fights.

This commitment would keep them busy and eventually rewarded. However, many of them are occupied by other things, and put aside their researches. Here lies the problem.
