Abstract

Abstract: Collaboration is integral to most scientific research today, and it has certainly been important in my career and for my career path. However, not all collaborations are "equal". Most, in fact, are short term or transient, with collaborators working on one project and then moving on to other projects and perhaps other collaborations. There are, however, a few collaborations, such as the three I describe here, that are long term and that not only resulted in a large number of collaborative projects but that also strongly influenced career paths. Indeed, these three collaborations resulted in all of us undertaking new paths that we were not likely to have taken alone or without the stimulation of working with someone we know well and have learned to trust.
