Dr. Hall will begin this talk by discussing cutting-edge conceptual and empirical work that highlight trends in team science and offer insights into what makes for successful collaboration in science. She will highlight a conceptual model for transdisciplinary research, as well as empirical findings produced by the National Cancer Institute’s SciTS (Science of Team Science) team that provide guidelines and strategies for success in team science. She will then highlight the NCI’s Team Science Toolkit website (www.teamsciencetoolkit.cancer.gov), a “one-stop-shop” for resources to help lead, manage, evaluate, facilitate, or support team science. She will feature key resources available through the Toolkit that can be used by investigators, academic institutions, and funders to maximize the success of team science. Finally, Dr. Hall will discuss needed future directions to build the SciTS evidence base, and discuss current projects of the NCI SciTS team in support of these goals, including development of a systems map of the factors influencing success in team science. |
