Summary/Abstract: The subject of the paper is a transdisciplinary approach to public health research, with an emphasis on the role and implementation of legal sciences towards this concept. The aim of the paper is to discuss the potential of a transdisciplinary approach to public health research, as it regards the policies and practices in the Republic of Serbia. The method used is a qualitative analysis of the best practices of other countries. It has been established that legal sciences have rarely been implemented in this kind of research. This ignores the role of law in promoting public health by translating research conclusions into legal solutions.
