If you want to go far, go together

Biomedical researchers are typically drawn to the idea of helping people through scientific discoveries and progress. However, our professional reward systems can often conflate being motivated for personal gain and recognition vs. being motivated by having real-world impact through our research. Whether we work in academia, industry, or government, impactful research is done in teams. When we "go together" and invest in people rather than individual outcomes, we also maximize success. In this Perspective, I concisely share my take on team science and how to go far by going together.
