Research Team Seminars in Anthropology

高等研究学院（SAR），今年庆祝成立115周年，有一个长期的承诺，以支持研究，推进有关人类学和相关学科，包括人类文化，进化和历史的知识。NSF/SAR研究团队研讨会有利于人类学领域，提供了重要的机会，在人的合作跨学科研究，鉴于缺乏资源，使忙碌的学者在一起的时间延长，是免费的日常专业责任。支持现有和新的学者研究团队，以面对面的方式集中，不间断的时间来讨论，综合和分析他们的合作研究结果，该项目促进了成功完成，扩展和开发有利于和丰富人类学领域的新项目的计划。该项目还支持NSF通过合作和增加对人类社会和文化多样性的原因、后果和复杂性的理解来建立科学基础设施的目标。该项目致力于通过一个学者亲自团队推进人类学的合作、跨学科和国际研究。该项目还增加了发现和理解，以及这种研究框架产生的产品的质量和重要性。在NSF的资助下，位于新墨西哥州圣达菲的人类学和相关学科的高级研究中心高级研究学院（SAR）在获奖期间举办了两次文化人类学研究小组研讨会。合格的研究团队主要关注人类学重要性的问题，这是及时的，并解决了具体的需求。研讨会由特区工作人员和外部学者组成的专家小组通过年度竞争选出。对于每个研讨会，NSF的资金涵盖了所有的旅行，住宿，膳食和其他相关费用，以满足在SAR。研究小组研讨会的组织者预计将提前制定会议时间表，并在研讨会结束后向SAR提供一份报告，介绍活动和成果，包括新研究的计划，在同行评审的期刊上发表文章和编辑的卷，该奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并被认为是值得通过使用基金会的智力价值和更广泛的影响审查标准。

The School for Advanced Research (SAR), celebrating its 115th anniversary this year, has a longstanding commitment to support research that advances knowledge about anthropology and related disciplines that includes human culture, evolution, and history. NSF/SAR research team seminars benefit the field of anthropology by providing important opportunities for in-person collaborative interdisciplinary research, given the lack of resources to bring busy scholars together for an extended time that is free of everyday professional responsibilities. Supporting both existing and new research teams of scholars with in-person focused, uninterrupted time to discuss, synthesize, and analyze results of their collaborative research, this project facilitates plans for successful completion, expansion, and development of new projects that benefit and enrich the field of anthropology. This project also supports the NSF’s goals of building scientific infrastructure through collaboration and increasing understanding of the causes, consequences, and complexities of human social and cultural variability.This project addresses the advancement of collaborative, interdisciplinary, and international research in anthropology by an in-person team of scholars. The project also increases discovery and understanding, as well as the quality and importance of the products resulting from this type of research framework. With NSF funding, the School for Advanced Research (SAR), an advanced research center for anthropology and allied disciplines located in Santa Fe, New Mexico, implements two research team seminars in cultural anthropology over the course of the award. Eligible research teams have a primary focus on a question of anthropological importance that is timely and addresses a specific need. Seminars are selected by an expert panel of SAR staff and external scholars through an annual competition. For each seminar, NSF funding covers all travel, lodging, meals, and other related costs to meet at SAR. Organizers of the research team seminars are expected to develop a meeting schedule in advance and provide SAR with a report after the seminar concludes that describes activities and results, including plans for new research, publications in peer-reviewed journals and edited volumes, and conference presentations.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.
