New article on the emergence of interdisciplinary scientific fields published in the journal Research Policy
In the article “On the emergence of interdisciplinary scientific fields: (how) does it relate to science convergence?” Philipp Baaden, Dr. Michael Rennings and Prof. Dr. Stefanie Bröring from the Chair of Entrepreneurship and Innovative Business Models together with Dr. Marcus John from Fraunhofer INT integrate findings from science convergence literature to develop a typology of pathways for the evolution of interdisciplinary fields. The results are relevant to academic and policy stakeholders – both of which are expected to drive the evolution of interdisciplinary scientific fields as well as technological progress and innovation.
