The Journal for Transdisciplinary Research (TD) is a journal dedicated to promoting the concept of transdisciplinary research. It is aimed at creating knowledge with the collaboration of the formal sectors of the natural and human sciences as base. Over and above this, the intention is to focus on levels of knowledge that are to be found at grassroots level. It is important to explore this knowledge because it becomes the groundwork for further knowledge, which is often not confined to a fixed formal discipline or area of knowledge. The editorial team of the journal welcomes contributions of a theoretical nature, as well as material based on empirical research. Preference is given to southern Africa as a region of focus. However, should submitted articles show the potential for making a contribution towards our understanding of science beyond the confines of single disciplines, it would enjoy favourable consideration.

As an ICU nurse in a large academic medical center, I have experienced first-hand the importance of interdisciplinary communication. The University of Pennsylvania Health System appears to have done an excellent job in creating a program that facilitates communication between nurse leaders and physicians. The data speaks for itself; better interdisciplinary communication and teamwork between specialties fosters better outcomes for patients. The idea of co-managing teams with physician and nursing leadership is crucial, and the introduction of project managers is an excellent way to take some of the burden for implementing these projects off of front line clinical staff. Transparency regarding outcomes and unit-wide rewards for successes are great ways to hold healthcare teams accountable and to ensure staff buy in. Knowledge sharing between units is also an excellent practice to ensure that the motivation for the project is felt hospital-wide. While the patient-related outcomes themselves are ...

Two apparently contradictory directions are current in supervision. In one direction, supervision has come to be understood as a discipline in its own right. This direction produces the possibility of cross-disciplinary supervision. In the second direction, professional regulation and membership require within-discipline supervision. This presentation will outline a small exploratory study that sought to investigate what is enabled and what is constrained in cross-disciplinary supervision. This qualitative study was based on semi-structured interviews with six supervisors from counselling, social work, and psychology, who supervised a wide range of other professionals in private practice and in health settings. Identified benefits of cross-disciplinary supervision include the value, to both supervisor and practitioner, when knowledge is shared between disciplines. Access to these benefits, however, appears to depend upon careful and skilled negotiation of agreements, including thorough ...

Robust, extensible and distributed databases integrating clinical, imaging and molecular data represent a substantial challenge for modern neuroscience. It is even more difficult to provide extensible software environments able to effectively target the rapidly changing data requirements and structures of research experiments. There is an increasing request from the neuroscience community for software tools addressing technical challenges about: (i) supporting researchers in the medical field to carry out data analysis using integrated bioinformatics services and tools; (ii) handling multimodal/multiscale data and metadata, enabling the injection of several different data types according to structured schemas; (iii) providing high extensibility, in order to address different requirements deriving from a large variety of applications simply through a user runtime configuration. A dynamically extensible data structure supporting collaborative multidisciplinary research projects in neuroscience has been

Large collaborative research projects, centers, or consortia have a single goal: to be funded for another round. Thats completely cynical, but it is not so far off the truth. The point of these projects is to advance science by bringing together many different experts in many different areas to do more than what could be done in a single R01-size endeavor. If there are no project-wide collaborative papers that come out of this effort going to high-profile journals there will be nothing- or very little- to make the claim that the project was successful. Why not just fund 3-8 R01-sized project that can work in isolation and accomplish the same thing or more? So publications are important.. The second thing to understand is that theres no such thing as a group-written paper, in my experience. Not truly. Someone always needs to step forward and take ownership of the paper to drive things forward otherwise its dead in the water. Maybe it can be two people, maybe it can be more- Ive never seen ...

CARLSBAD & LA JOLLA, Calif., Aug 05, 2010 (BUSINESS WIRE) -- Life Technologies Corporation and the University of California at San Diego Moores Cancer Center today announced a partnership to use SOLiD(TM) 4 genomic analysis technology in a research program to study chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL), a cancer of the white blood cells. The CLL research is made possible by funding from the National Institutes of Health and will enable scientists to survey the whole transcriptomes of 96 CLL tumor samples for potential biomarkers. CLL is one of four main types of leukemia, which primarily affects adults averaging 70 years old, and causes a slow increase in the number of white blood cells called B cells in the bone marrow. The cancerous cells spread from the marrow to the blood, and can also affect the lymph nodes and other organs, such as the liver and spleen. CLL eventually causes the bone marrow to fail and weakens the immune system. A multidisciplinary research team from Life Technologies and ...
