Professional societies are uniquely positioned to help facilitate culture change in their disciplines through: publishing journals, fostering scientific discussion and debate, broad membership (including membership from academia, government agencies, and private businesses), hosting large scientific meetings that can serve as networking and professional development opportunities for people at many professional levels, and electing leaders that greatly influence views and norms within a discipline.
The ROOT & SHOOT Research Coordination Network seeks to effect lasting cultural changes through broad, sustained, and innovative approaches.
Please share your ideas, thoughts, and concerns. The RCN has funds to support working groups and we need your help to identify how these funds should be allocated.
