Support for Research Team Seminars in Anthropology

该项目涉及最近对美国和国际科学研究状况的研究，这些研究确定了合作、跨学科和国际研究增加的趋势，以及这种研究框架导致的产品质量和重要性的提高。然而，对协作科学实践的研究也表明，尽管数字交流是团队研究的重要组成部分，但面对面的互动也是成功推进研究的需要，当研究人员分散在美国和其他国家时，这可能是一个挑战。该计划满足了这一需求，促进了协作科学研究，并加强了国内外科学家之间的合作与合作。该项目支持为期三年的文化人类学、生物人类学和考古学研究团队研讨会，该研讨会将由人类学及相关学科的高级研究中心高级研究学院(SAR)主办。该计划每年将为需要集中时间讨论、综合和分析他们的合作研究结果并为成功完成他们的项目制定计划的研究团队提供至少两次研讨会。符合条件的研究团队将是那些主要关注人类学重要性问题的团队，但团队可能是跨学科的和国际范围的。研讨会将通过2月份举行的年度比赛进行评选。在国家科学基金会的资助下，特区将支付最多10名参与者前往圣达菲的所有国内和国际交通费用，以及研究小组在特区研讨会大楼举行三天会议的住宿和餐饮费用。预计研究小组研讨会的组织者将提前制定会议时间表，并在研讨会结束后向特区提交一份报告，描述活动和结果。

The project addresses recent studies on the state of U.S. and international scientific inquiry, which identify a trend towards increased collaborative, interdisciplinary, and international research and the increased quality and importance of the products resulting from this research framework. However, studies on the practice of collaborative science also demonstrate that, while digital communication is an important component of team research, face-to-face interaction is also needed to successfully advance the research, which can be a challenge to achieve when the investigators are scattered across the U.S. and in other countries. This program addresses this need and advances collaborative scientific inquiry, and strengthens cooperation and collaboration among scientists nationally and internationally.This project supports three years of research team seminars in cultural anthropology, biological anthropology, and archaeology that will be hosted by the School for Advanced Research (SAR), an advanced research center for anthropology and allied disciplines. The program will support at least two seminars each year for research teams that need focused time together to discuss, synthesize, and analyze the results of their collaborative research and to develop plans for successful completion of their projects. Eligible research teams will be those in which the primary focus is on a question of anthropological importance, but the teams may be interdisciplinary and international in scope. Seminars will be selected through an annual competition held in February. With the funding provided by NSF, SAR will cover all domestic and international transportation to Santa Fe for up to 10 participants, as well as lodging and meal expenses for the research team to meet in the SAR Seminar House for three days. Research Team Seminar organizers will be expected to develop a meeting schedule in advance and provide SAR with a report after the seminar concludes describing the activities and results.
