项目摘要

With this grant, Dr. Abir-Am is completing data collection for her ongoing study of the role of research schools in the rise of molecular biology, 1930-1970. She aims to clarify the historical and social processes enabling and constraining transdisciplinary collaboration, innovation and policy in 20th century science. The project revolves around systematic comparisons of four research schools, two in the United States and one each in England and France. Among other things, Dr. Abir-Am is examining the research programs, including both long term theoretical visions and short term empirical strategies. These research programs constitute the sources of conceptual coherence in research schools and of their capacity for adaptation to changes in the disciplinary ecology at large. Comparisons of schools that shared goals but differed in their methodological strategy reveal relations of competition; while comparisons of schools that shared methodological tools but differed in their conceptual goals reveal relations of complementary cooperation. She is also examining the social networks, institutional networks, and policy programs of these research schools. These studies should clarify the interaction within and across research schools, the historiography of molecular biology as a gradual or revolutionary event, and the role of science policy in the development of new disciplines.

有了这笔资金，阿比尔-阿姆博士正在完成她正在进行的研究的数据收集，研究学院在1930-1970年分子生物学兴起中的作用。她的目标是阐明在20世纪科学中促成和限制跨学科合作、创新和政策的历史和社会过程。该项目围绕着对四所研究型学校的系统比较展开，其中两所在美国，一所在英国，一所在法国。除其他事项外，阿比尔-阿姆博士正在审查研究项目，包括长期理论愿景和短期实证策略。这些研究项目构成了研究学院概念一致性的来源，以及它们适应学科生态变化的能力。对目标相同但方法策略不同的学校的比较揭示了竞争关系；虽然对共享方法论工具但概念目标不同的学校的比较揭示了互补合作的关系。她也在研究这些研究型学校的社会网络、机构网络和政策项目。这些研究应该阐明研究学院内部和学院之间的相互作用，分子生物学的历史编纂是渐进的还是革命性的事件，以及科学政策在新学科发展中的作用。
