Short Programs for Interdisciplinary Research Training: The National Institutes of Health recognizes that fusion of information, research practices, and technologies from multiple disciplines can foster creative approaches to previously intractable problems. The purpose of this RFA is to promote training in multiple disciplines so that this type of creative problem solving and fusion of disciplines into novel interdisciplines is more likely to occur. One example of an interdiscipline is bioengineering, in which individuals need to understand principles and methodologies of biology and engineering in order to pursue their research. Recognizing that interdisciplinary approaches are more likely to evolve if scientists are formally trained in multiple disciplines and that short, intensive training programs can be very effective at providing students with the fundamental aspects of a given discipline, this RFA seeks to promote the development of new short interdisciplinary training programs for scientists at all levels of their careers. These programs can involve varying ratios of didactic and research training, but should include both. The goal of all of the programs should be for the students to emerge with sufficient understanding of a new discipline(s) that they can meld it with their previous training to generate new interdisciplines with novel research strategies.
