    I'd like that. I think in many ways we've forgotten about holistic research.

    Will do - and I agree, holistic research has been structurally mitigated against . Most universities pay a lot of lip service to inter-disciplinarity, but they usually fail to come through in terms of hirings, tenure and promotions. It's also usually fairly hard to get published in top tier journals as well, which is often a tenure requirement, if you try and transcend the core of a single discipline.
