Transdisciplinary peer research exchange

  • Venue: To be confirmed
  • Start: Wed, 27 Apr 2022 12:00:00 BST
  • End: Wed, 27 Apr 2022 14:00:00 BST

A Transdisciplinary Research Exchange is a peer review with a difference. It is an invitation to take a collaborative transgression into another field of expertise and, in return, to invite a colleague from that field to discover your area of work. Instead of presenting your own work, you are invited to present a colleague’s work. This colleague should be working in another discipline – the more radically different in terms of its methods, the better!

For example, a colleague working in comparative literature might read and then present a piece of research carried out by a colleague in data science and vice versa. They would then respond mutually to their colleague's reading of their work. The idea is to create a situation where disciplinary boundaries must be traversed in a ludic and exploratory way. It hopes to provide the opportunity for substantive exchange and reflection of where our work can intersect in mutually beneficial ways.

At this first event, humanists, practitioners and bio-environmental scientists will talk about the methods they each use to explore our relationship with bees.

Participants:

Bennett Hogg (Music)

Vivek Nityananda (Bio-environmental Science, Centre for Behaviour and Evolution)

Jenny Richards (English Literature)

Candy Rowe ( Animal Behaviour and Cognition)

They will be accompanied by Tiago Sousa Garcia from the Research Software Engineering Team.
