Team Science and the Academic Research Enterprise

The Renaissance Computing Institute (RENCI) at UNC-Chapel Hill is excited to announce Accelerating Collaborative Team Science (ACTS) — a Team Science educational program.

ACTS functions as a connector, bridging the gap between researchers, coordinating centers, and other parties involved in practicing and promoting collaborative team science theory and practical applications across the scientific research landscape. With twenty years of experience coordinating team science efforts, RENCI provides a unique vantage point for those seeking to understand the role of the coordinating center and the challenges specific to large, geographically dispersed scientific teams.

Join our series kickoff, “Team Science and the Academic Research Enterprise,” where we’ll discuss Team Science practices with key stakeholders at UNC Chapel Hill. We’ll hear from several campus institutes utilizing Team Science to advance research. During our time together, we’ll discuss terminology and highlight critical aspects of successful Team Science efforts as well as pitfalls to avoid.
