Team Science Showcase
Description
The Johns Hopkins Institute for Clinical & Translational Research hosts the Team Science Showcase, featuring the theme "Design for Belonging: How to Build Inclusion and Collaboration" and a keynote presentation and Q&A with Susie Wise, founder and former director of the K12 Lab Network at the Stanford d.school and author of Design for Belonging. Additionally, the 2021, 2022, and 2023 Team Science Award winners will lead interactive panel discussions.
The concept of the Science of Team Science answers the question, "How do groups, particularly interdisciplinary groups, move through a process together?" Advances in translational research are increasingly dependent on teams of individuals with different perspectives, backgrounds, and skills working collaboratively towards a common goal. How team members collaborate and communicate continues to evolve, particularly in environments rich in knowledge and experiential diversity. Collaboration among teams goes beyond traditional boundaries, accommodating an increasingly blended and dispersed workforce.
The first 100 registrants will receive a free copy of Wise's book, Design for Belonging, mailed to them at no cost. Please register early.
