Collaboration is a necessity for today’s data scientists. Based on personal experience collaborating on 500+ statistics and data science projects and helping to create 35+ statistics and data science collaboration laboratories/centres around the world, we developed the ASCCR framework for collaboration to help data scientists learn and teach interdisciplinary collaboration skills. ASCCR stands for Attitude, Structure, Content, Communication, and Relationship. After presenting an overview of this framework, Prof. Vance will describe how it is being used throughout the LISA 2020 Global Network, which is a network of 35 statistics and data science collaboration laboratories in Africa, South America, South Asia, and soon in Indonesia.

This seminar is based on the papers:
