Multidisciplinary science and scientific advising for public decision making. Lessons from the COVID-19 pandemic.Introduction: origin and motivation of the session.I will make a brief introduction commenting on some activities carried out during the COVID19 pandemic. In particular, the monitoring of the epidemic in Argentina performed by the Infectious Diseases Modelling Network during 2020, and the series of "Interdisciplinary Dialogues around the COVID-19 pandemic", conducted within the framework of the Network for Translational Research in Health (https://rits.conicet.gov.ar/) during 2021. Some of the questions and concerns that emerged from those activities motivated the organization of the present session. https://ssunga77.sched.com/event/1ASHD/ref-05570-multidisciplinary-science-and-scientific-advising-for-public-decision-making-lessons-from-the-covid-19-pandemic
