Abstract: The study of human development requires a collective effort in addressing complex issues, such as the study of how individuals can overcome adverse childhood experiences to become healthy and happy adults and engaged citizens. Multiple levels of influence have to be considered, such as the role of parents, teachers, peers, neighbourhood characteristics as well as biobehavioral processes. A detailed understanding of the factors and processes shaping human development demands the active collaboration and exchange between experts across domains. Removing barriers to potential interdisciplinary collaboration and exchange remains a crucial challenge for developmental science in the 21st century.
