The ABC’s of DesCartes

A Collaborative, Interdisciplinary Project on Shared Terminology

The ABC’s of DesCartes is a glossary designed to facilitate interdisciplinary collaboration and understanding within the DesCartes Program. Each concept here was defined by interdisciplinary pairs of researchers in three layers : a general definition, a discipline-specific interpretation, and its relevance and application within DesCartes. You can learn more about the background, process, and outcome of the project here.
