Two illustrations of the importance of cross-pollination in science.

“In any case, plant scientists were routinely thinking about the Krebs cycle in terms of growth, rather than ATP synthesis, long before most cancer biologists began to think that way. We should never forget that ideas in science often come from unexpected quarters. Focusing funding on research into human cancer would miss profound insights deriving from plant scientists.”

— Nick Lane, Transformer 📘

“The why, it turned out, was hiding in the quantum realm — a place geophysicists rarely tread. Likewise, most quantum physicists don't generally tackle the mysteries of geophysical fluids. But Marston was an exception.”

— Katie McCormick, How Quantum Physicists Explained Earth’s Oscillating Weather Patterns 📄

Humanists who work with STEM folks or who are interested in work adjacent to those communities take note! There's a new blog and list Google Group taking shape. Humanities Commons user Ashton Merck is setting up a site with resources. More information and links here: https://humanistsinstem.hcommons.org/2023/08/08/hello-world/

I met Ashton at the INSciTS conference last month and we had a great conversation about being humanities folks who have worked in these spaces. I have to believe there's more Commons members who may be interested. Check it out!

Worth a read for those who work on or are interested in transdisciplinary work: A framework for building transdisciplinary expertise - https://i2insights.org/2023/08/08/transdisciplinary-expertise-framework/

> The aim is not to produce transdisciplinary problem-solving experts, but rather to produce graduates who know enough about what is required for transdisciplinary problem solving to be able to effectively contribute their disciplinary and other expertise to it, and who can continue to build their ability to contribute over their careers. This requires a combination of content knowledge and practical experience in each characteristic, and there is a wide range of possible contexts and pedagogies for delivering these.

#transdisciplinary #framework

Other than institutional, methodological and conceptual barriers, researchers engaging in #transdisciplinary research often lack a sense of community and connectedness. This is why through our webinar series - the Pathways Forum - we strive to create safe spaces for researchers to exchange views and practices, fostering #collaboration and mutual learning.

Watch the recording of our past forum on the challenges of communicating science on our Youtube channel!

Have you ever heard of a #participative poster?

To explain what the Pathways Initiative is working on we created a participative poster that was designed for the annual conference organized by Future Earth France. Our poster wished to engage researchers in what we at Pathways are doing and invited them to reflect on their positionality and the role of science within #transformative processes.

Historian David Nirenberg on Robert Oppenheimer's #transdisciplinary vision for the Institute of Advanced Study, which he led for decades. "Today, we need to be reminded that no alignment of technology with humanity can be achieved through technology alone."

Just presented our conceptual ideas (work in progress) at the @EADI conference with @nicahector & Barbara Kump. Thank you Johanna Vogel (IDOS) for organizing this inspiring session on #values and #normative #complexity in #transdisciplinary settings #valuedebate #justice #development

So @pecuellar went to get a copy of #InsolventBook and this happened 🙂

What water futures will we create today?

In Water Operations for Uncertain Futures 2023, we've already seen many possible visions of what our water futures might look like and how we can begin to shape them through #transdisciplinary practice, thanks to yesterday's excellent opening panel chaired by Katherine Daniell, including panelists David Kennewell, Nicola Ulibarri, Karen Hutchinson, Julianne Quinn, and Jasmin Zatarain Salazar from TU Delft. This morning, we're hearing the concept pitches we'll be working on collectively today -- each of which is an opportunity to shape our water futures with help from the knowledges of all our workshop participants.

More on the workshop: https://algorithmicfutures.org/wouf23

#AFPLwouf23 is the third workshop in the Algorithmic Futures Policy Lab series, which has been made possible with the support of the Erasmus+ Programme of the European Union. ANU Institute for Water Futures and OneBasinCRC have taken the lead in planning and supporting this workshop. Also thanks to the ANU Fenner School, ANU School of Cybernetics, ANU Centre for European Studies, CNRS LAMSADE, and DIMACS Rutgers University.

"Proper application and interpretation of #fishery dependent data requires the insights and knowledge of members of the #fishing industry."

How to do this is shown in this 👇 latest paper by Anna Mercer et al. (including skippers!) in our Frontiers in Marine Science Research Topic on Integrating #fishers' experiential #knowledge in #marinescience.

I’ve been working on a performance-installation project with my regular dance collaborator Irene Fiordilino called “WHERE DOES A BODY END?”. On Friday afternoon we’ll be sharing work in progress at the Laban Building in Deptford from around 12:30 onwards. We’ve shared some of this before but this is the first time we’ve attempted a really long form version. If you fancy coming along to see then PM me for details. #phd #PracticeAsResearch #transdisciplinary

"Educational measures [...] need to go beyond traditional educational means and require the integration of the basic competences of #systemsthinking and #complexity understanding. [...] the chapter argues for a #transdisciplinary approach, based on #knowledgeintegration across disciplines and between science and practice together with supporting communication patterns and strategies."
