This $200,592 Project Grant awarded by the National Science Foundation (NSF) Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (CFDA 47.075) program supports the "Collaborative Research: HNDS-R: Advancing Diverse Viable Effective Networked Teams (ADVENT)" project at Northwestern University. The project aims to create an open-source computational network model to optimize the formation of high-performance, high-viability teams with significant heterogeneity and affinity levels. Utilizing a multitheoretical multilevel framework, the researchers will explore team assembly mechanisms and develop a data-driven model to estimate team performance and viability based on member and network attributes. The project involves virtual experiments to examine the impacts of various team configurations and the creation of an interactive web-based exploratorium for simulating team dynamics. This research seeks to provide innovative solutions for organizations to assemble diverse, cohesive teams that can effectively address complex challenges. No sub-awards are planned under this grant, which runs from September 1, 2024 to August 31, 2027.
