Abstract:
Abstract:The topic of puberty is inherently interdisciplinary, given that it entails major biological, social, and macroenvironmental level influences and changes during the transition from childhood to adolescence. A short history of interdisciplinary work on puberty is first presented, followed by part of progress for interdisciplinary research that are important to puberty. We discuss four prioritized strategies for interdisciplinary research on puberty. Recommendation for tailoring current refined work toward integrating interdisciplinary knowledge into the systematic framework of puberty research is introduced, with cross-unit collaboration and innovations,as well as inspiration and mutual support are expected.
