Although this is not the kind of research with which most academics have experience, we are still convinced that this kind of research will become increasingly prevalent and necessary in the 21st century. The aim of this award was not only to generate new research approaches to the complex problems of the 21st century but also to provide models for how researchers from disciplines that do not have a history of collaboration can work together to meet the complex, heterogeneous challenges of the 21st century."}
