In Pursuit of Big Research

Small research communities around thematic areas fostering deeper collaboration around the pursuit of big research questions.

Working Group Benefits

  • Improved potential for innovation

  • Defined pathways for sharing ideas and seeking information or help

  • Mentor, educate, and train the current and next generation of scientists

  • Assist with meeting recruits and new faculty to the institution

  • Access to shared resources

  • New opportunities for funding (intramural and extramural)
