Listen to four scientists at a 2009 workshop organized by Science Careers discuss their own transdisciplinary approach.
Drawing on their own experience of transdisciplinary collaborations in neuroscience, Des Fitzgerald, Melissa Littefiled and their colleagues have discussed how this can lead, in transdisciplinary research collaborations, to "subterranean logics of ambivalence, reserve and critique" (Fitzgerald et al, 2014, p. 2).
The framework begins at the end: it distinguishes three distinct 'transdisciplinary outcome spaces' and proposes articulating their content for purposive transdisciplinary research projects.
We discuss their different prescriptions for transdisciplinary knowledge production and contradictions that arise from these, including tensions between consolidation and interconnection, and between knowledge commodification and mutual learning.
In fact, process theology is difficult to define because process theologians are so diverse and transdisciplinary in their views and interests.
The program is designed to provide a full range of medical and social services for patients and their caregivers, including a transdisciplinary team of primary care providers, specialists, care managers, rehabilitative, social home health, and personal care services.
We identified and defended a definition of globalization that gives primacy to the drivers and effects of transnational economic integration, and addressed a number of important conceptual and methodological issues in studying globalization's effects on SDH and their distribution, emphasizing the need for transdisciplinary approaches that reflect the complexity of the topic.
Participants formulated requests for local information and local feedbacks to support their decisions and opinions, a process of transdisciplinary exchange that contributes to the development of practical knowledge that can be transferred into action.
Based on a structured ex-post reflection of PhD-students and their advisors and on the comparison of four transdisciplinary doctoral projects completed in the "Doctoral School Sustainable Development" at BOKU University of Natural Resources and Life Sciences Vienna, Austria, this article analyses what types of actors contributed what kind of knowledge in which research phase.
In their paper, Niklas Gudowsky and Walter Peissl review the theoretical basis for transdisciplinary forward looking activities and provide first insights into an ongoing highly deliberative and reflexive Foresight and co-creation process engaging science, society and policy makers: CIMULACT – Citizen and Multi-Actor Consultation on Horizon2020.
