Research collaboration is essential in the conduct of science, but many collaborations reflect inequitable practices that undermine the success of the project. In this webinar, we describe how to build collaborations that are transparent, equitable, and allow for creative growth through clear communication and respect for all contributions. This session covers UMass ADVANCE tools and checklists for approaches to creating and crediting equitable research collaboration. ADVANCE will be adding some new collaboration tools to their website just before the webinar, so check back.

ISSR is pleased to cosponsor this event of the ADVANCE Program at UMass Amherst.  This is the last of four capstone webinars presenting UMass ADVANCE research and proven practices on faculty collaboration and equity.
