=An Introduction to Improvisation for Scientists Workshop.= Improvisational theater games and exercises are great, fun ways to develop group dynamics that are collaborative and creative. In this introduction workshop, participants are able to practice listening, speaking and creating conversations as a group. Improv Science workshops have been given at Harvard Medical Systems Biology Department and the Center for Cell Analysis and Modeling at University of Connecticut Health Center. == Why Improv Science == Scientists are beginning to address directly the social environment in which we do science: how we talk to each other, collaborate, and whether we support our development as scientists and human beings . Improvisational theater skills provide a context in which scientists can develop as team members, listeners, contributors, collaborators and directors. ==When to have a workshop== * building a team * improving your listening and conversation skills * enhancing creativity * community building * whenever you want Workshops are 1.5 to 2.5 hours in length.
