In recent years the organisation and practice of collaboration in
the life sciences has undergone radical transformations, owing to
the advent of big science enterprises, newly developed data
gathering and storage technologies, increasing levels of
interdisciplinarity, and changing societal expectations for
science. Collaboration in the New Life Sciences examines the causes
and consequences of changing patterns of scientific collaboration
in the life sciences. This book presents an understanding of how
and why collaboration in the life sciences is changing and the
effects of these changes on scientific knowledge, the work lives
and experiences of scientists, social policy and society. Through a
series of thematically arranged chapters, it considers the social,
technical, and organizational facets of collaboration, addressing
not only the rise of new forms of collaboration in the life
sciences, but also examining recent developments in two broad
research areas: ecology and environment, and the molecular life
sciences. With an international team of experts presenting case
studies and analyses drawn from the US, UK, Asia and Europe,
Collaboration in the New Life Sciences will appeal not only to
scholars and students of science and technology studies, but also
to those interested in science and social policy, and the sociology
of work and organisations.
