The Science of Team Science with Dr. Jeni Cross

The best solutions to a problem are discovered when scientists from a variety of backgrounds work together, each one providing a perspective that the other doesn't have. Dr. Jeni Cross, a community sociologist, teaches us about the science of team science: why humans work better in teams and how research benefits from a transdisciplinary approach. We learn how teams of people foster innovation, how they communicate effectively with each other, what their relationships are like, and basically, what makes for a good team.Notes:How can we improve the creativity and performance of research teams?
