THE COLLABORATION NETWORK (TCN)

Connecting investigators to resources and potential collaborators is a need across the CCTST partner institutions and the community. To address this need, the CIS developed The Collaboration Network (TCN) to overcome geographical, institutional and disciplinary barriers to connecting with colleagues with complementary interests.

TCN is a growing group of investigators, educators, clinical providers and other innovators who meet once a month to learn about each other, available resources, and funding opportunities. Guests and experts are frequently invited to participate in order to provide information about a service or resource. On a regular basis, the TCN invites one of its members to present a “Member Spotlight”, to give a presentation about their projects, research, challenges, and interests in collaboration.
