Are you interested in harnessing the science of team science for your collaborative work, or do you want to learn about research on team science? Attend The Science and Practice of Team Science panel discussion and reception hosted by the Carl R. Woese Institute for Genomic Biology (IGB) on April 24. The panel will include Stephen Fiore, PhD (Director of the Cognitive Sciences Laboratory at University of Central Florida) and Melanie Bauer (a Grant Writing Manager at Nova Southeastern University). The Center for Social & Behavioral Science is thrilled to co-sponsor this event with the IGB.

The Science and Practice of Team Science panel will provide complementary perspectives on the Science of Team Science (SciTS), an emerging area of scholarship developed to understand and improve teamwork in science. As an interdisciplinary field, SciTS adapts concepts and methods from various areas to study issues ranging from team formation and team composition and how these relate to group dynamics in science teams, to organizational challenges around collaboration in science, and how these relate to professional development (e.g., choices researchers make) and advancement in academia (e.g., tenure and promotion).

Drawing on their experience from a multi-year project using a coaching intervention to develop teams for transdisciplinary science, our panelists will provide insights as scientists and practitioners and discuss their challenges experienced when working to translate scientific findings into actionable interventions that improve collaboration. Join us for a reception with hors-d’oeuvres and beverages following the panel.
