Thursday, June 2, 2011 9:00-11:00 a.m. Room 145 Veterinary Science Saint Paul

Forming a scientific team or beginning a collaboration is always a risky business. Interdisciplinary, translational research brings with it the challenge of integrating researchers from different personal and professional cultures into dynamic and productive research teams. Many factors, such as building trust, identifying the right team members, good communication and effective negotiation are needed to advance collaborative projects, and to prevent and manage disputes and conflicts. This workshop will focus on strategies for building successful research teams.

This workshop will consider:

• What makes for a successful research team?
• How can diverse researchers (MD, PhD, etc.) unite to speak the same language?
• How do you develop/manage your own career in an age of team science?
• How can conflict be managed constructively?
