Reinforce findings in the published literature, and add new insights to our understanding. A number of prior publications have discussed the conceptual and methodological challenges involved in efforts to achieve TD integration [3,6], and others have focused, in particular, on the challenges created by discipline-based differences in values, terminology, methods, and work styles [2,6,10,11,13]. The qualitative nature of our findings provides first-person reports of these challenges that add nuance to the published findings, for example, emphasizing in particular the high levels of effort involved in the scientific work of TD integration and in bridging disciplinary differences.
