- Abstract:
- Principal Investigators (PIs) will be invited through an internal call announcement to apply for funding to undertake a range of discipline hopping activities. Examples of the types of 'discipline-hopping' activities that could be undertaken include (but are not limited to): - Embedding researchers, for a period of time, in Schools (departments) outside of their own discipline area (within the same organisation, or in other eligible UK research organisations). - Sharing insights on priorities and looking for synergies/ new ideas that cut across departmental boundaries. - Work shadowing in other Schools, for example to learn new skills and techniques. - Organising meetings/ seminars/ workshops between departments and disciplines to share learning, understanding of key terms, concepts, language and tools to tackle problems - Cocreating plans for transformational multidisciplinary research programmes that take advantage of these insights and synergies.
