Lab Team Breakthroughs

The book explores the dynamics within research teams, delving into the complex interactions, shared expertise, and occasional conflicts that characterize collaborative research. By analyzing specific case studies of Nobel Prize-winning discoveries, the book illustrates the variety of team dynamics and the critical roles played by often-unrecognized team members.

The book progresses by first establishing the importance of team science, then presenting detailed examples, and finally discussing implications for funding and research evaluation with practical suggestions for improving collaboration.
