Andrew Hugill gave a concise and challenging talk on the origins of academic disciplines and applications of transdisciplinary research. He highlighted the mis-alignment of the current REF and university structures with those support structures necessary for the research team collaborations needed in facing the grand challenges of the 21st Century. Europe is further ahead on this and the expectation is generally that multi-disciplinary teams are the normal mode for large projects.
