Working Groups

Working Groups

Collaboration in the CSBC is driven by working groups that engage scientists along scientific themes so that they can share data, tools and resources to cooperatively solve common sets of challenges. The working groups have a variety of outcomes and can go through stages of activity depending on investigator interests.
