TEam Science education for Post-Docs
Are you interested in delivering team science training to your post-doctoral researchers to prepare them for leading high-impact collaborative science teams?
Over the past decade, I have delivered workshops to dozens of postdocs and early-career researchers at Ohio State, Columbia, Stanford, the University of Wisconsin, Oak Ridge National Laboratory, UTSW, Boston University, and to the Big Ten Academic Alliance Professorial Advancement Initiative (PAI) Program, among others.
I would love to bring this program to your campus.

Post-Doctoral Scholars Team Science Education
The Team Science Lab offers training (1-hour, 3-hour, and 8-hour workshops; virtually or in-person) for your postdocs and early-career researchers. Drawing from the field of the Science of Team Science, I teach the practical skills and strategies they need for interdisciplinary collaboration. As an NIH-funded researcher, I have a deep understanding of the challenges new investigators face in building their collaborative skill set.
This training is designed so participants will be able to implement the skills in their collaborative work now, as postdocs, and also into the future as research leaders to help them thrive in academic research environments.
Key topics include:
Creating a mission and vision for your research program
Building a diverse, equitable, and inclusive team
Developing your own leadership style
Being an effective collaborator
Team Science Training for Post-Doctoral Scholars
