Description

Welcome to ITHS’s 2023-2024 Team Science Seminar Series. This 10-part series will be held on the first Thursday of every month from 12–1 pm PT. Participants who attend 80% (8 out of the 10) of the seminars will receive a certificate of completion provided by the ITHS Team Science program.

The Seminar Series has been developed to cultivate the next generation of translational team scientists and leaders through Team Science education, training, and leadership development. Participation in this series will support the acquisition of individual team science competencies that will help guide and shape current and future collaborations and relationships across disciplines. Using feedback from 2022-2023 Team Science Seminar Series’ participants and a consultant, we have enhanced our content and approach. We look forward to engaging with you in Year 2 of our Team Science Seminar Series.

This session is the first talk for the 2023-2024 Team Science Seminar Series. We will discuss the rationale for why team science is important and how it relates to your work and research.
