The National Research Foundation of Korea (NRF) is one of the largest research foundations in the world. To many, it may seem like a black box where researchers send their applications, which are either accepted or rejected. Kwisun Park is both a researcher and administrator trying to open the black box. In this eye opening talk, Kwisun Park explains how we can classify a discipline as either its own discipline or a convergence of different disciplines. Sorting through hundreds of thousands of articles, a matrix of all the disciplines the NRF funds is analyzed. Watch this talk to see how we can rethink what a discipline is and what the NRF believes are the best examples of convergence.
In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)
