Thank you so much dear Dr. Kadhim K. Resan
I think
Research is by its nature a cooperative activity. Requires you to share with your colleagues in the lab, research leader, other search groups and basic utilities, and others
you’ll need to give specific examples of how you've worked with others in the past and achieved successful results. Read below for tips on how to answer questions about working on a team, as well as sample answers.
The success of team science is influenced by a variety of contextual environmental influences. These factors influence each stage of a scientific initiative, with implications for efficiency, productivity, and overall effectiveness. They include:
- Funding trends
- Institutional infrastructure and resources for communication and data sharing
- Organizational policies—such as promotion and tenure policies—that impact team-based endeavors
- Team processes, including the existence of agreements related to proprietary rights to data and discovery, as well as mechanisms for feedback and reflection
- Interpersonal dynamics among team members
- Team members' collaborative skills and experiences
I think the entire issue here depends on the nature of science/discipline and the topic being studied. For example, in hard science (biology, chemistry...) there is a good chance to see a team of scientists working in a lab or cooperate to reach certain findings. Also, in archaeology we find a team of archaeologists working in archaeological sites and reach very important discoveries. But, in studies of literature we rarely find this spirit of team work. However, teamwork must be encouraged as two heads are better than one. Thanks for this good question.
Of course, independent research is the core of the scholarship. Even when a co-authored research paper is published there is a principal author used as the corresponding author. But, still in addition to the individual effort, it is good to have collective or teamwork. A person can kick a ball by himself, but cannot make a football team alone.
Teamwork and collaboration
Research is inherently a collaborative activity. It requires you to partner with your lab mates, your research mentor, other research groups and core facilities, among others. Business activities are collaborative too. Being able to outline your role and duties in a group project clearly, execute your tasks, report your progress and see how your piece fits into the bigger picture are all important teamwork skills you pick up while working in a research lab
It's good but the success and effectiveness of a scientific team depend on its leadership and cohesion through close collaboration and harmony among its members
I think it is essential for a researcher to join a research team for his/her professional career development.
Dear El-Sayed El-Aswad , I preferto wirk with a team, thank you so much for your interest.
Working in a scientific team is really happy to hear. One should feel happy knowing the way the things are arranged, the way they are projected and the way this was happening and moulding into a real thing. This enhances the knowledge, work culture and the environment itself involves to do something practical and special. The mind also inclines towards innovative way of thinking and ideas.
Working in a well managed and well led team results in greater professional growth along with better contribution in the field of endeavor.
Hi
Dear Mohsin Abdullah Al-Shammari
In my opinion, work as a scientific team has the following benefits:
- Funding trends
- Institutional infrastructure and resources for communication and data sharing
- Organizational policies—such as promotion and tenure policies—that impact team-based endeavors
- Team processes, including the existence of agreements related to proprietary rights to data and discovery, as well as mechanisms for feedback and reflection
- Interpersonal dynamics among team members
- Team members' collaborative skills and experiences
That's why I love teamwork
I prefer teamwork. Different team members contribute different perspectives, and the synergy between team members can produce creative and productive results. I love to help draw out the unique skill sets of different team members.
