Lingfei Wu, an assistant professor in the Department of Informatics and Networked Systems, has earned the prestigious National Science Foundation CAREER Award for probing into the distinct roles research teams play in unfolding the advance of science and technology. Dr. Wu’s project, “How Does Core Scientific Knowledge Advance Understanding Team Innovation at the Foundations of Sciences,” was funded for $565,087 for a five-year period, beginning in March 2023.

The five-year award will support Wu’s investigation of team collaboration mechanisms underlying the production of millions of scholarly and educational documents over the past century. The study will examine how individual scientists can learn, progress, and effectively innovate in teams.
