What is scientific knowledge, and how is it created, accumulated, and used? Knowledge, Science, and Society (KSS) is an interdisciplinary seminar designed to respond to this fundamental question of intellectual change. We suggest that the hidden structure and dynamics of science are not amenable to simple metrics. Our understanding on the underlying structure (such as how do citations distribute) and dynamics (such as how do citations grow) of science conditions effective evaluation of outcomes (such as paper citations, journal impact factor, and scholar h-index) and productive science policy for societal benefits. We gather in one city at a time and discuss one question at a time to grow a global intellectual community for the next generation scholars.
'Fake’ interdisciplinary collaborations (IDCs) happen when scientists of various disciplines put their names on a joint project... but no knowledge integration occurs, because they end up working on their individual or mono-disciplinary research separately.
