Geographically-dispersed teams have become the norm in clinical research collaborations. The Institutional Development Awards (IDeA) Program, first authorized by Congress in 1993 and managed by the National Institute of General Medical Sciences, has been developed for the purpose of broadening the geographic distribution of National Institutes of Health (NIH) funding for biomedical and behavioral research by enhancing the competitiveness for research funding of institutions located in states in which the aggregate success rate for grant applications to the NIH has historically been low. The IDeA States are composed of the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico and the following 23 states: Alaska, Arkansas, Delaware, Hawaii, Idaho, Kansas, Kentucky, Louisiana, Maine, Mississippi, Montana, Nebraska, Nevada, New Hampshire, New Mexico, North Dakota, Oklahoma, Rhode Island, South Carolina, South Dakota, Vermont, West Virginia, Wyoming. The Environmental influences on Child Health Outcomes (ECHO) research program's IDeA States Pediatric Clinical Trials Network (ISPCTN) was formed in 2016 with 24 sites within the IDeA states to provide clinical trial access to children in rural and underserved communities while building research capacity and infrastructure. In order to become effective, the network research coordinators used many methods to become more cohesive and productive. One of those methods was the use of Team Science.
地理上分散的团队已成为临床研究合作中的常态。机构发展奖（IDeA）计划于1993年首次由国会授权，由国立综合医学科学研究所管理，其设立目的是通过提高位于历史上向美国国立卫生研究院（NIH）提交资助申请成功率较低的州的机构在研究资助方面的竞争力，来扩大NIH对生物医学和行为研究资金的地理分布范围。IDeA州包括波多黎各联邦以及以下23个州：阿拉斯加、阿肯色、特拉华、夏威夷、爱达荷、堪萨斯、肯塔基、路易斯安那、缅因、密西西比、蒙大拿、内布拉斯加、内华达、新罕布什尔、新墨西哥、北达科他、俄克拉荷马、罗德岛、南卡罗来纳、南达科他、佛蒙特、西弗吉尼亚、怀俄明。环境对儿童健康结果（ECHO）研究计划的IDeA州儿科临床试验网络（ISPCTN）于2016年成立，在IDeA州内设有24个站点，为农村和服务不足社区的儿童提供临床试验机会，同时建设研究能力和基础设施。为了提高效率，网络研究协调员采用了多种方法来增强凝聚力和提高生产力。其中一种方法就是运用团队科学。
