About this research

This research is conducted by Dr Elizabeth Lam and Dr Will Grant (Australian National Centre for the Public Awareness of Science, ANU). This is a short version of the participant information sheet with essential details; a longer version is available here.

This research project seeks to understand how science communication can further benefit cross-disciplinary research and create new collaboration opportunities among scientists of different expertise. The results of the study will be shared in academic journals and conference presentations.

You are invited to complete a survey about your views and impression towards cross-disciplinary collaboration. Your participation in this research is voluntary, and you may decline to answer any question. This study might provide you insights to have a better experience when collaborating with researchers from other disciplines in future!
