Building A Bridge Between Chemistry and Biology Richard N. Zare Department of Chemistry Stanford University Stanford, California USA

BiologyChemistry

What Is The Problem? Chemistry is mostly about molecules Biology is mostly about organisms

Emergence Emergence is the way complex systems and patterns arise out of simple interactions. We need to understand regulation/feedback We need to go BEYOND THE MOLECULE

Some Examples

"Team Science: The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly"

Issues in Team Science

What Are The Drivers?  Lure of solving complex problems  More funding  More impact

The Nature of Interdisciplinary Studies  Knowledge arrives as a whole.  Universities disintegrate knowledge, department by department.  The promise of interdisciplinary studies is to reintegrate knowledge to promote discovery.

What Are The Drawbacks?

Importance of Communication Completion Credit

Goal Diverse groups working together, making creative contributions to complex problems at the cutting edge, and extending themselves to individually unreachable heights is Team Science at its best.
