Abstract

Collaborations that cross traditional boundaries between disciplines in STEM and the arts and humanities open up exciting research possibilities. In our team’s case, we combined expertise in historical manuscripts, data science, and microbiology to explore the structure and potential efficacy of historical medical recipes. Such an approach can highlight patterns or questions that a single-disciplinary approach is likely to miss. But learning to speak each other’s disciplinary languages is not always easy, and misunderstandings can impede work. Here, we present our own experiences as a case study of how we have learned from each other to ask new questions of our source material and the problems we have had to solve along the way.
