2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2 From: Julie Morin <jmm266@xxxxxxxxx> Dear Colleagues, Please consider submitting your abstracts to the *session 310 > â??**Good practices and challenges in interdisciplinary working in volcano sciences* *â??* for the next COV conference in Antigua, Guatemala, Feb 11-17, 2024. *Lightning talks and posters** are welcome.* *Session 310 description:* It is widely recognized that understanding volcanic processes and mitigating their impacts on society requires interdisciplinary collaboration. However, effective collaboration presents challenges, particularly because volcanic science involves a wide range of disciplines from the physical and social sciences. This session aims to explore the importance, good practices and challenges of collaboration across disciplines on volcanic environments. We propose a combination of lightnings talks and a roundtable discussion that will summarize the various lightnings talks and open up discussion on broader or more specific aspects of interdisciplinary collaboration, including: the importance, benefits and challenges of interdisciplinary work, design of collaborative research projects (identification of shared research questions and terminology, common goals, definition of roles and responsibilities), effective communication between disciplines, potential issues linked with disciplinary extractivism, awareness of different working temporalities between disciplines, integration and sharing of data, potential disagreements related to the internal functioning of each discipline, challenge of finding interdisciplinary funding opportunities, frameworks to develop effective interdisciplinary research, etc. We welcome communications from volcano scientists from any discipline willing to share their insights and experiences on the successes, challenges or failures of establishing and maintaining interdisciplinary collaborations. This session is *proposed back-to-back to the session* *311 > â??Making the magic happen: methods and case studies for interdisciplinary knowledge exchange in volcanic riskâ?? *(conveners Armijo et al.). Session 310 focuses on research experiences revealing best practices and key challenges to overcome in interdisciplinary volcano research, while session 311 focuses more on methodologies and frameworks for unlocking conversations between disciplines. *Deadline for abstract submission is October 8: https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://on-line-form.eu/iavceivolcano2023/__;!!IKRxdwAv5BmarQ!eWho0IqFnSxvl79YydfDi5DB1vBj07lwSbvmhmybVkTVVyMSZCNSAXPE5KtWWRzRKcM5Z_3xSFtRgNCl$ <https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://on-line-form.eu/iavceivolcano2023/__;!!IKRxdwAv5BmarQ!dQE5yYVSsJFXgh8ws1zjNRex91Nwvo506VSZNiG6rp-ASXIn6HEtLp_cnFfcdEJTLmm0lBo73w5pwUA$>* Contact: jmm266@xxxxxxxxx We hope to see you in Antigua!
