Collaborations are an integral part of the scientific research community, driving discoveries, publications, and inventions. Collaborations can occur across labs, universities, countries, and industries. The importance of scientific collaborations is recognized by the NIH, which lists collaborative research as one of the core subject matter areas of Responsible Conduct of Research training and education.

Join this event to hear Steve Finkbeiner and Alex Marson discuss their experiences and advice for managing effective scientific collaborations. Topics addressed in this panel conversation will include:

  • The pros and cons to collaboration for achieving scientific goals
  • How to handle authorship in a collaboration
  • Challenges and strategies associated with international collaborations
  • The diversity of interests that can be at play in collaborations
  • Best practices for successful collaborations with industry
