input: [Plot] 41 [Abstract] Addressing wicked problems requires collaboration among diverse experts. Grant agencies in the United States such as the National Cancer Institute, National Institutes for Health and National Science Foundation seek team-based proposals involving partners often across institutions. Networks of scientists and researchers to address the broader impacts for dissemination are sought to accelerate findings. This poster illustrates doctoral research from Colorado Technical University’s Computer Science, Emerging Media Program on the potential for collaborative virtual environments (CVE) to support transdisciplinarity, a holist, and embodied approach to inquiry. Dialogue through embodied avatars combined with the potential of big, open data, citizen science, and collective wisdom can span across, between, and beyond disciplines within 3D CVEs. How will this combination of capabilities advance scientific breakthroughs? What is our role in the emerging story of transdisciplinarity in collaborative virtual environments?
