Assumption 4: Krasnow is Interdisciplinary …
… and moreover, builds bridges among disciplines.This is such a loaded topic that it must be further subdivided into more specific categories:
1. Krasnow is interdisciplinary both experimentally and theoretically. As such, there need to be distinct spaces for both experimental and theoretical study to happen. As listed on the website homepage, the interdisciplinary types of research being conducted here include: “cognitive psychology, neurobiology, and the computer-driven study of artificial intelligence and complex adaptive systems”.
2. Krasnow’s interdisciplinary studies have implications both academically and professionally, for education and application.
3. Collaboration builds bridges between the interdisciplinary types of research taking place at Krasnow. The architecture should promote community, versus isolation, in order to fully capitalize on the diverse knowledge of its inhabitants. This concept will be furthered explored in a blog to follow.
* I would like to offer my apologies to those I have interviewed and referred to Krasnow as a “Neuroscience Institute”. This is an example of how the interview process can correct misconceptions and reveal information in such a way as to provide an enhanced understanding of what is actually taking place here.
