Webinar: Shared Decision-Making – A Catalyst for Real-World Research Solutions
Event presented by the National Academy of Sciences
The Government-University-Industry Research Roundtable, in collaboration with the HIBAR Research Alliance (HRA), will convene a webinar to discuss how cross-sectoral leadership teams can collaborate in shared decision-making when working on use-inspired basic research. The term HIBAR (Highly Integrative Basic and Responsive) was introduced in 2017 to name a specific category of research projects that had previously lacked a clear definition. HIBAR research projects bring together diverse leadership teams, both from research fields (often in academia) and from practical sectors (commercial and/or non-profit). They collectively make the key decisions that hybridize fundamental research with real-world problem-solving to yield significant benefits.
During this webinar, Dr. Lorne Whitehead, Director for HRA and Professor at University of British Columbia, will provide a short overview and purpose of HIBAR Research Alliance. A panel of experts (below) will then discuss the thoughtful approach to shared decision-making in cross-sectoral research projects, from different perspectives. The goal of the webinar is to share actionable advice that can be replicated or adapted to other contexts.
Expert Panelists:
Dr. Holly Buck, Assistant Professor, University at Buffalo
Dr. Christine Kreuder Johnson, Professor and Director of the EpiCenter for Disease Dynamics, University of California Davis
Mr. Dave Kasik, Former Senior Technical Fellow, Boeing (retired)
Guest Moderator:
Dr. Ira Bennett, Director for Federal Research Engagement, Arizona State University
