Description¶

The article documents a strategy in which researchers facing common collaborative-research challenges convene a professional learning community: they identify challenges, seek resources and solutions, and then apply those solutions in their research-alliance work. The paper shares "the strategies they identified to address the challenges, and the tools they used to overcome the challenges" so other researchers can benefit.
