Presentation for the 2015 University of North Texas (UNT) Student and Faculty Research Symposium on African Studies. This presentation discusses avoiding the resource curse and challenges of the policy process in a nascent-oil-producing country in West Africa.

Article discussing theories on the evaluation of philosophy and philosophers and the peer review process.

This book chapter discusses a research project to promote biocultural conservation in Cape Horn, Chile. In an effort to achieve the goal of transdisciplinary integration, the authors used the strategy of identifying a charismatic species, since doing so serves to motivate people towards biodiversity conservation, to communicate ecological concepts, and to integrate both the ecological and social dimensions of sustainability.

Article discussing research on biocultural ethics as a way to overcome biocultural homogenization.

Article discussing research on the biodiversity of the dominant vegetation in the world's southernmost forests and tundra ecosystems.

Article discussing research on building a Chilean network for long-term socio-ecological research.

Article discussing research on Cape Horn, a national park free from alien species in southernmost South America.

Article discussing patterns of species richness in sub-Antarctic plants and implications for global conservation.

Article on the relations between science and policy offering an analysis of the historical antecedents of the policy of science and comparative data and ethical reflections on the policy of scientific budget.

This article offers comment by the author on the Patagonian Archipelago as the Final Frontier, as written about in a book by Matthew B. Martinic titled, 'Patagonia Archipelago. The Final Frontier.

This is the report of a workshop focusing on the use of broader societal impacts criteria as part of the review process at the European Commission. There is both a historical account and some thinking about how 'impact' ought to be incorporated into Horizon 2020 (the funding scheme formerly known as FP8). Since the US NSF is also currently rethinking the details of its merit review process, and since there is an interesting comparison between NSF's and the EC's approaches to impact, the authors have also included a focus on NSF's Broader Impacts Criterion. The workshop was both a research opportunity (under SciSIP grant #0830387) and an effort to use that research to help inform policy for science (in terms of informing peer review models).

This report discusses the Comparative Assessment of Peer Review (CAPR) project outcomes. The authors investigate the review process for agencies that fund scientific research.

This article discusses building a Chilean network for long-term socio-ecological research.

This article discusses the program of education and environmental ethics. The relationship between scientists and society theme of the Symposium of Mendoza, are addressed by the program of education and environmental ethics Omora Park on three interconnected levels: (1) level of ecological sciences, (2) level environmental ethics and (3) biocultural conservation level.

Article on developing indicators of the impact of scholarly communication and the technical challenges.
