To tackle complex issues, team-based science is becoming increasingly important to leverage diversity of perspectives across areas of expertise. The Ohio State University launched a Growing Research Opportunities Academy aimed at providing scientists with professional development on the principles of team science and how to apply them to collaborative research. Following a competitive selection process, Crane faculty associate Dr. Kelly Purtell was chosen to join the academy’s second cohort of 25 researchers.

Crane faculty associate Dr. Scott Graves was a recipient of Ohio State’s 2023 Community Engaged Scholar Award.
