In most cases, it is more likely to give up due to difficulties or lack of passion when young researchers work alone. What about working together with colleagues and friends? Scholars from various backgrounds have different thinking system and academic skills. You can discuss research ideas to engage in thinking collision and stimulate academic interest. The academic collaboration can significantly enhance work effectiveness. Therefore, the three speakers will share how their experience of collaboration and how their teamwork overcome academic challenges.
