Seminar style discussion group examining the science of collaboration. We will read and discuss papers from many fields that examine questions about collaboration or related behaviours, with the aim of developing a deeper understanding about the nature, characteristics, and optimal conditions for collaboration, whether it be an organization, a city, a classroom, or an ad-hoc gathering. Source material will be drawn from the fields of biology, social network theory, graph theory, computer science, medicine, organizational change, ethics, and other areas as appropriate.
