Dorothy Carter leads groundbreaking research that's helping NASA prepare for humanity's Mission to Mars. At the core of her research is the concept of multi-team systems, such as astronaut crews and Earth-based mission control teams. She and her collaborators look at how success depends not just on one team's performance, but on how multiple teams coordinate and communicate to achieve complex goals. Her work is helping NASA, and all of us, better understand how people can work together to achieve extraordinary goals.
