NextGen Precision Discovery Series webinar scheduled for May 4

The fourth installment of the NextGen Precision Health Discovery Series, titled “Team Science: A Value Proposition,” will be held virtually at noon on Tuesday, May 4. Register now to attend the May 4 lecture

The speaker, Fungai Chanetsa, PhD, MPH, is the associate director for Research Administration at the Ellis Fischel Cancer Center. For 15 years, she was a Health Behavior Scientist (Scientific Review Officer) at the Center for Scientific Review, National Institutes of Health.

In this webinar, Dr. Chanesta will explore how as societal problems and the technologies to solve them become more complex, team science has become essential to scientific progress. She will present a value proposition for how team science knowledge can be acquired and used to deliver a high return on investment for the UM System research enterprise. She will define what team science is and is not, highlight benefits, opportunities and strategies to facilitate adoption of team science practice, and share how to make these ideas actionable.

Register now to attend the May 4 lecture to learn about how the culture of multidisciplinary scientific collaboration is essential to innovation and discovery.

The NextGen Precision Health Discovery Series provides learning opportunities for UM System faculty and staff across disciplines, the statewide community and our other partners to learn about the scope of precision health research and identify potential collaborative opportunities. The series consists of monthly lectures geared toward a broad multidisciplinary audience so all can participate and appreciate the spectrum of precision health efforts.
