Team Science and the Academic Research Enterprise — April 11 at 12 PM ET

We invite UNC faculty and staff to join us for the inaugural Accelerating Collaborative Team Science (ACTS) webinar on April 11 at 12 PM ET. This month’s topic is Team Science and the Academic Research Enterprise.

ACTS functions as a connector, bridging the gap between researchers, coordinating centers, and other parties involved in practicing and promoting collaborative team science theory and practical applications across the scientific research landscape. During the event, we’ll discuss Team Science practices with key stakeholders at UNC-Chapel Hill. We’ll hear from several campus institutes utilizing Team Science to advance research, discuss terminology, and highlight critical aspects of successful Team Science efforts as well as pitfalls to avoid.

Those interested in attending can register on the event page, and are encouraged to sign up for our newsletter to stay updated on future events.

Stan Ahalt, PhD — Inaugural Dean for the School of Data Science and Society, and the Executive Advisor and Domain Scientist for Team Science at RENCI
