The term "team science" represents the observation that research increasingly is collaborative and that investigators from different disciplines, institutions, and communities often need to work together to effectively address complex problems. Successfully developing or participating in scientific collaborations can require considerable thought and practical skill applied to teamwork, project management, and research planning. Importantly also, it can mean engaging with multiple communities and broad groups of non-academic stakeholders essential to a project's ultimate impact.
The courses and other resources in this section present the fundamentals of "the science of team science" while covering an array of considerations for productive collaboration and meaningful engagement that are relevant to all areas of biomedical and health sciences research.
