Two research fields can mutually advance through mapped points of contact.

Evidence

Our listing of these points of contact is far from complete, but it was never meant to be otherwise. Rather, the goal was to illustrate some places at which the two areas of concern intersect and to sketch some of the mutual gains that might be realized if these intersections were taken seriously and their implications developed. The interconnectedness of the two areas is sufficiently powerful that advances in one could have positive implications for development in the other. — Roderick M. Kramer, Geoffrey J.
