Team Science Guest Speaker

Team Science is a collaborative effort to address a scientific challenge that leverages the strengths and expertise of professionals trained in different fields.  Increasingly, scientists across many disciplines and settings are engaging in team-based research initiatives. Funding agencies and programs have begun to codify Team Science as an outcome of large-scale grant opportunities. This information session will provide the fundamentals of Team Science, transdisciplinary research, convergence, an understanding of teamwork processes, and the difference between your research plan and your collaborative teamwork plan.

When: Friday, February 26th, 4:00 – 5:00PM

Zoom:  https://clarkson.zoom.us/j/92079182108

We invite you to engage in this upcoming information session on Team Science with guest speaker Dr. Stephen M. Fiore,  the Director of Cognitive Sciences Laboratory, and Professor with the University of Central Florida’s Cognitive Sciences Program in the Department of Philosophy and Institute for Simulation & Training.  He has contributed to working groups for the National Academies of Sciences in understanding and measuring “21st Century Skills” and was a committee member of their “Science of Team Science” consensus study. As Principal Investigator and Co-Principal Investigator he has helped to secure and manage approximately $20 million in research funding. He is co-author of a book on “Accelerating Expertise” (2013) and is a co-editor of volumes on Shared Cognition (2012), Macrocognition in Teams (2008), Distributed Training (2007), and Team Cognition (2004).
