This conference will convene research enterprise professionals from minority-serving institutions (MSIs) across the country to develop a set of best practices for equitable research collaboration. Research enterprise personnel – such as research development, pre-award, and sponsored projects professionals – are influential in catalyzing scientific innovation and productivity through their administrative work, such as administering seed grant programs, assisting with proposal development, or building interdisciplinary research teams. Scientific discovery is enhanced when collaborative teams include diverse participants in an inclusive environment. Yet, participation in collaborative teams can lead to inequitable outcomes for diverse participants, such as less credit in co-authored publications and slower progress in career advancement. The resources developed through this conference will provide them the tools to improve the research enterprise at MSIs, strengthen scientific discovery and innovation through diverse research teams, and contribute to the retention and advancement of intersectionally diverse participants in the STEM professoriate and workforce. Stakeholders in the conference include members of the National Organization of Research Development Professionals (NORDP), the Society of Research Administrators International (SRA International), and the National Council of University Research Administrators (NCURA). This group will develop accessible knowledge, tools, and training materials about inclusive collaboration for research enterprise personnel. The intended products – a guidebook and digital resources – will provide an understanding of the potential pitfalls for underrepresented participants of diverse science teams and actionable ways to overcome these barriers through new practices, policies, and professional development interventions.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.

本次会议将召集来自全国少数族裔服务机构 (MSI) 的研究企业专业人员，制定一套具有影响力的公平研究合作的最佳实践，例如研究开发、预奖励和赞助项目专业人员。通过行政工作促进科学创新和生产力，例如管理种子资助计划、协助制定提案或建立跨学科研究团队，当协作团队在包容性环境中包含不同的参与者时，科学发现就会得到加强。可以导致不同参与者的不平等结果，例如共同撰写的出版物的信用减少和职业发展进展缓慢。通过本次会议开发的资源将为他们提供改善 MSI 的研究事业、通过多样化的研究团队加强科学发现和创新的工具。 ，并为 STEM 教授和员工队伍中跨学科参与者的保留和进步做出贡献。会议的利益相关者包括国家研究发展专业人员组织 (NORDP)、国际研究管理协会 (SRA International) 和国际研究管理协会 (SRA International) 的成员。全国委员会该小组将为研究企业人员开发有关包容性合作的可用知识、工具和培训材料，即指南和数字资源，这将使代表性不足的参与者了解潜在的陷阱。多样化的科学团队和可行的方法，通过新的实践、政策和专业发展干预措施来克服这些障碍。该奖项反映了 NSF 的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的智力价值和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。
