From individual researchers and laboratories to departments, institutes, and organizations, modern science and engineering are team efforts. Communities large and small coordinate to expand our understanding of the world and apply that new understanding to inform, involve and advise colleagues and the public, and help develop novel products and services for the economy.
Q-SEnSE investigators are involved with the community in many ways, with recent examples included below.
