DESCRIPTION:Prof. Vito Latora\, Queen Mary University of London\, London\,
  United Kingdom\nWhether scientists can benefit from restricting or broade
 ning the scope of their research still remains largely unexplored. Drawing
  on some large data sets on scientific production during several decades\,
  I will focus here on individual scientists’s background interdisciplina
 rity and on the knowledge to which they are exposed through their collabor
 ators\, presenting some recent results on the advantages and disadvantages
  of interdisciplinarity in modern science. I will also discuss how funding
  impacts the way in which we collaborate\, and the other way around.
