Have seen some people talking about a code of conduct / expectations for labs/groups. Not just proscribing for bad behavior but also...
-
Expectations about contribution, support, mentoring and potentially publication policy for PI and students.

My own group fluctuates in size (theoretical cosmology groups tend to be small) but I certainly expect and encourage senior students

To pass on "know how" to junior peers that might be quite hands-on but fall short of coauthorship. (But gives raw material for job letters)

When I was a postgrad, my RA work was paid for but I was not co-author, which is ok. When I supervised, I paid & face co-authorship...
-
I've also given sole authorship to students when I did substantial theoretical framing & analysis. Not sure that was best now...

Nevertheless there's important conversations we need to have about ethical collaboration. Good idea code of conduct for good & poor conduct

Me too. And seen other projects that began with conversations in my office (w. students/postdocs) come to fruition without my involvement.
