The Improvement Science Research Network (ISRN) is a network dedicated to rigorously testing health care improvement strategies through multi-site research studies and academic and clinical partnerships.<\/p>\n

Though such large-scale research can produce ground breaking results, it also presents challenges in forming highly functioning and effective teams across multiple disciplines and geographical barriers. The field of Team Science provides a wealth of information about creating and maintaining successful teams that the ISRN will apply to collaborative research studies.<\/p>\n

Join our presenter for a free 60-minute Web event as he presents the concept and principles of Team Science, key factors for successful collaboration, and how these ideas apply to the work of the ISRN, especially the ISRN landmark Network Studies.<\/p>\n

Featured Presenter: Gary Olson, PhD<\/strong><\/p>\n

Gary M. Olson, PhD is a Donald Bren Professor of Information & Computer Sciences at University of California, Irvine. Dr. Olson, author of more than 100 published research articles, has dedicated his work to understanding how technology can support remote collaboration. He also has made important contributions to the studies of management practice and the cultural aspects of collaboration, as well as the complex socio-technical issues surrounding technology design.<\/p>\n

Moderator: Grace Willard, RN, PhD<\/strong><\/p>\n

Dr. Grace Willard is a Senior Research Scientist with the Improvement Science Research Network, in the Academic Center for Evidence Based Practice at the School of Nursing at The University of Texas Health Science Center San Antonio. Dr. Willard is the onsite leader for the initiative to develop an the Information Architecture for Improvement Science, which will produce a taxonomy encompassing the broad scope of the Improvement Science Research Network. Her experiences in developing data models, and data mining make her expertise robust toward this work.<\/p>\n
