Something I wrote months ago as part of an initiative that didn't make it. Probably still useful, but needs a little work.

- You can expect your advisor and other coauthors to follow good scientific practice ([EPFL lex 3.3.2](https://www.epfl.ch/about/overview/wp-content/uploads/2019/09/3.3.2_principe_integrite_recherche_an.pdf))
- You are entitled to primary authorship if you contributed the most
- You cannot be forced to add someone as an author if they haven't made essential contributions, which cannot be purely financial
- You can expect your advisor to mentor you, help you with general research issues, fill out forms in reasonable time, and so forth

This one has no source... it'd be nice if there was one

- Your PhD representatives, for any issues: <https://www.epfl.ch/education/phd/programs/edoc-student-representatives/>
- The EPFL "person of trust", an independent external mediator mandated by EPFL, for interpersonal issues such as mobbing and harassment: <https://www.epfl.ch/about/respect/trust-and-support-network/person-of-trust-and-mediation-service/>
- The EPFL "administrative ombudsperson", or as a second resort the ETH Board ones, for interpersonal issues: <https://www.epfl.ch/about/respect/the-respect-compliance-office/ombudsperson/>
- The EPFL "scientific ombudsperson" for cases of scientific misconduct: <https://www.epfl.ch/research/ethic-statement/research-misconduct/>

I have no clue what the difference is between the "person of trust" and the "administrative ombudsperson"
