Abstract

There is an increasing push from funders for researchers to undertake interdisciplinary projects. But while many want to do interdisciplinary research, few truly know quite how to. Ajoy Datta shares lessons from a recent interdisciplinary research project: understand that an ability to work well with others is as crucial as a researcher's expertise, make time for regular collective reflection on the group’s progress, prioritise fieldwork, and ensure the organisation and coordination work is properly valued and clearly assigned.
