NJ ACTS Team Science
Are you the PI or MPI of a funded multidisciplinary, interdisciplinary, or transdisciplinary research project?
The Team Science Core of NJ ACTS hosts a virtual seminar entitled "Team Science Across the NJ ACTS Consortium" that features leaders and team members of multidisciplinary, interdisciplinary, and transdisciplinary research projects taking place within the NJ ACTS consortium to explore how complex research teams are formed, operated, and achieve success.
If you are interested in having your project featured in the series, please let us know by contacting teamscience@rbhs.rutgers.edu.
Participation will allow others to learn from your experiences and will increase the visibility of your project and team.
