| dc.description | One of the current characteristics in science, is the high complexity and technical character that becomes over the last years. This has induced the development of a specific type of professionals, highly specialized in the disciplines that they are involved in, which has produced a communicational breach between the scientists involved on different branches of the science. One of the strategies intended to cross this breach, is the generation of multidisciplinary research strategies, in which professionals of every field of the science can take part, being a kind of scientific and human bridge between the different research teams where they are involved in. This new style to do investigation has made possible the generation of new branches in science, such as for example Biotechnology. In this field -Tissue Engineering- becomes to be a very interesting example of the potential to work in multidisciplinary teams. The reason for this is mainly to avoid technical mistakes, which could cause the death of some patients and which can only be solved by developing research under a multidisciplinary strategy. Nevertheless, and in spite of the success working with multidisciplinary teams, this kind of strategy is rarely used in Latin-American, where the reasons seems to be centered in some aspects personal and cultural. This work shows an example of the new style to develop complex research, which could suggest a new way of working in Latin-American, granted that there is the will to enhance current scientific level. | en-US |
| dc.description | Una de las características de la investigación científica actual, es el alto grado de complejidad y tecnicismo alcanzado en las últimas décadas, lo cual por una parte ha obligado a la generación de profesionales altamente especializados, pero que por otra ha producido una brecha comunicacional entre los participantes de las distintas ramas de la ciencia. Una de las estrategias con las cuales el mundo científico ha intentado traspasar dicha barrera, ha sido a través de la generación de estrategias de trabajo multidisciplinarias, es decir, conformadas por profesionales provenientes de variadas áreas del conocimiento, los cuales hacen de puente científico y humano entre los distintos equipos de trabajo en donde se desarrollan. Este nuevo estilo de hacer investigación ha posibilitado el surgimiento de nuevas ramas de la ciencia, como por ejemplo la Biotecnología. Dentro de ésta, una de las áreas emergentes, la Ingeniería de Tejidos, se destaca por ser un muy buen ejemplo del potencial que trae el trabajar en equipos multidisciplinarios. La causa de esta necesidad -de trabajo en equipos multidisciplinarios- es ante todo, el evitar errores técnicos que pueden provocar la muerte de un paciente, lo cual puede ser solucionado únicamente al realizar investigación en absoluta concurrencia de profesionales de todos los campos del conocimiento. Sin embargo, y a pesar de los éxitos obtenidos al realizar investigación en equipos multidisciplinarios, dicha estrategia es empleada escasamente en Latinoamérica, debido básicamente a motivos personales y culturales. De este modo, este trabajo intenta mostrar un ejemplo del nuevo enfoque que actualmente se emplea para hacer investigación compleja, sugiriendo a su vez el camino a seguir, si es que realmente se desea potenciar el desarrollo de la ciencia en Latinoamérica. | es-ES |
