Her work is interdisciplinary and crosses usually incompatible disciplinary boundaries, communicating complex science for the public. But it is her skill in understanding how others view the world (their conceptual framework) and the limitations posed by that framework that have made her a successful collaborator. She also navigates the distinct differences in expectations between academia, industry, bureaucrats and the third sector. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
