Register Now for the 2025-2026 Team Science Seminar Series

Announcing the fourth year of the ITHS Team Science Seminar Series! The theme for 2025-26 will be Bridging the Gap: Operationalizing Team Science Framework to Enhance Effectiveness of Interdisciplinary Collaborations. The first three sessions will delve into each domain in the “Six Conditions for Creating Effective Teams” Framework (Six Conditions video). The next three sessions will expand on this framework to focus on the topics of conflict resolution and leadership and coaching.

Sessions begin October 9th and will be held 12–1pm Pacific the second Thursday of each month from October through March. The series will be hosted via Zoom and is offered at no cost to participants.

why team science? Integrating researchers from different disciplines brings a wider range of ideas, methodologies, and insights, leading to more comprehensive solutions for complex health challenges.

Launched in 2022, the seminar series was developed in response to a growing demand for team science education and training for researchers, faculty and staff.  As in past years, sessions will be interactive and focus on practical and evidence-informed strategies to develop team science and collaborative leadership skills and knowledge. A certificate of completion will be offered by ITHS to those who attend or view recordings of all six sessions and complete the evaluations for each.*

Here are some of responses shared by participants in the 2024-2025 series:

I have really enjoyed this series. It is great to learn lessons from others and get exposure to tools and viewpoints you may not have been exposed to previously.

  • “I recently used skills developed in this series to successfully speak to a co-worker using phrases like, “Help me explain” and other verbal tools encouraged in this series (and it went over great!). Thank you for this series!”
  • “I would recommend this training to anyone. It provided practical skills useful to all employees.”

How team science moves you forward: Collaboration allows for the rapid synthesis of concepts and approaches from various fields, fostering greater creativity and innovation in generating scientific discoveries.
