Aging is changing the way we live, with implications so wide that its approach by specialty is insufficient, making essential to generate an integrative view, forcing the academy to rebuild its edges. Transdisciplinary research is defined as the efforts made by researchers from different disciplines who work together to create new conceptual, theoretical, methodological and translation innovations that integrate and move beyond the specific approaches of the discipline to address a common problem. The University of Chile formed the Transdisciplinary Network on Aging, allowing the interaction of academics from different fields of knowledge, who share a common interest in exploring aging, promoting an integrated approach. In January 2018, the fifth International Summer School on Aging was held at the University of Chile, where a group of national and international experts from different disciplines including design, health, urban planning, sociology, law, engineering and architecture, raised their positions, studies and scientific evidence in relation to a common goal of the elderly: aging in place. The presentations and integrative analyzes are described in this review.
