There is an urgent need to develop diverse, equitable, and collaborative research teams to improve research impact and health outcomes. However, several barriers remain to achieving this goal, including implementation of strategies for creating an equitable and inclusive research team.
Tufts CTSI invites you to join us for “Fundamentals for Building Inclusive Research Teams” on Friday, March 31 and Friday, April 7, from 11:00AM-12:00PM. This workshop will share practical skills for building collaborative and inclusive research teams. Participants will learn about fostering teams that welcome diverse identities, working and learning styles, disciplines, and forms of knowledge. The format will involve case studies, presentations, a panel discussion, and reflection/discussion.
Topics covered will include:
- Cultural humility as a basis for equitable collaboration
- Creating, supporting, and sustaining cohesive, equitable, and collaborative research teams
- Leveraging a team’s diversity to improve translational research
Participants will leave with tools and frameworks that will help them implement a plan to operationalize skills learned.
Learning Objectives
After attending this event, participants will be able to do the following as part of dynamic research teams:
- Describe strategies that promote equitable collaboration
- Apply best practices for building diverse, collaborative research teams
Who Should Attend
Investigators with varied research collaboration experience and varied disciplinary interests, as well as research staff and others responsible for supporting collaborative research projects are encouraged to attend.
