地点：浙江大学紫金港校区求是大讲堂
讲座简介：Last year, researchers in the UK and China co-published over 19,000 research papers. Behind that extraordinary number is an extraordinary story, one of finding common purpose across cultures and domains. If the exchange of knowledge, thought and practice across divides has become an integral part of the academic life of the modern university, then how do universities equip our students with these ‘interface’ competencies?
