Miles MacLeod

He is an associate professor for philosophy of science, and current chair of the philosophy section, at the University of Twente. He specializes in the study of interdisciplinary research, with a particular focus over the past 10 years on the cognitive challenges of interdisciplinary work resulting from variations in standards and practices between different disciplines. He applies insights from his work particularly to the development
and improvement of interdisciplinary educational programmes; as well as the improvement of research practices within interdisciplinary projects. He has given workshops and addressed universities at different levels (from research institutes and departments to university management boards) on these subjects.
