The project addresses recent studies on the state of U.S. and international scientific inquiry, which identify a trend towards increased collaborative, interdisciplinary, and international research and the increased quality and importance of the products resulting from this research framework. However, studies on the practice of collaborative science also demonstrate that, while digital communication is an important component of team research, face-to-face interaction is also needed to successfully advance the research, which can be a challenge to achieve when the investigators are scattered across the U.S. and in other countries. This program addresses this need and advances collaborative scientific inquiry, and strengthens cooperation and collaboration among scientists nationally and internationally.This project supports three years of research team seminars in cultural anthropology, biological anthropology, and archaeology that will be hosted by the School for Advanced Research (SAR), an advanced research center for anthropology and allied disciplines. The program will support at least two seminars each year for research teams that need focused time together to discuss, synthesize, and analyze the results of their collaborative research and to develop plans for successful completion of their projects. Eligible research teams will be those in which the primary focus is on a question of anthropological importance, but the teams may be interdisciplinary and international in scope. Seminars will be selected through an annual competition held in February. With the funding provided by NSF, SAR will cover all domestic and international transportation to Santa Fe for up to 10 participants, as well as lodging and meal expenses for the research team to meet in the SAR Seminar House for three days. Research Team Seminar organizers will be expected to develop a meeting schedule in advance and provide SAR with a report after the seminar concludes describing the activities and results.

该项目涉及最近关于美国和国际科学探究状况的研究，这些研究确定了合作、跨学科和国际研究增加的趋势，以及该研究框架所产生的产品质量和重要性的提高。然而，对协作科学实践的研究也表明，虽然数字通信是团队研究的重要组成部分，但成功推进研究也需要面对面的互动，当研究人员在研究过程中实现这一点时，这可能是一个挑战。分散在美国和其他国家。该项目满足了这一需求，促进了协作性科学探究，并加强了国内外科学家之间的合作与协作。该项目支持由高级研究学院主办的为期三年的文化人类学、生物人类学和考古学研究团队研讨会（SAR），人类学和相关学科的高级研究中心。该计划每年将为研究团队提供至少两次研讨会支持，这些研究团队需要集中时间在一起讨论、综合和分析其合作研究的结果，并制定成功完成项目的计划。合格的研究团队将是那些主要关注人类学重要性问题的团队，但这些团队的范围可能是跨学科的和国际性的。研讨会将通过二月份举行的年度竞赛选出。借助 NSF 提供的资金，SAR 将承担最多 10 名参与者前往圣达菲的所有国内和国际交通费用，以及研究团队在 SAR 研讨所举行三天会议的住宿和餐费。研究团队研讨会组织者应提前制定会议日程，并在研讨会结束后向 SAR 提供一份报告，描述活动和结果。
