Cross-disciplinary Research Capability for Discovery Science at Oxford.

牛津大学发现科学的跨学科研究能力旨在促进项目、安置/借调和网络的发展，以期使新的跨学科合作形成和发展新的视角和方法。在从学科跳跃奖(2022-23)中吸取经验教训的基础上，我们将使用多种方法来促进牛津大学在发现科学领域的跨学科能力。特别是使早期职业研究人员(ECR)能够领导一个合作项目，对他们的发展来说是非常宝贵的。ECR通常被认为没有资格领导协作、多学科的研究项目，因此在安全空间拥有这个机会是一个至关重要的发展工具。提供空间和少量资金，以提供研讨会，围绕已确定的挑战/主题展示多学科观点，为新的合作提供肥沃的空间，以确定并在所有职业生涯阶段发展，并可能为研究带来令人惊讶的新方向。在其他研究/实验室空间的安置，以及到其他机构/部门的借调，丰富和加速了围绕不同视角和研究问题的学习，这可能是在其他情况下从未发生的，并使研究能够融入政策和实践。牛津大学发现科学的跨学科研究能力旨在提高这一重要领域的能力，使未来的研究受益，再加上从敏捷倡议(改变环境计划)中学习，将装备一大批研究人员，以确保发现科学中高风险、高回报的项目突破知识的界限。

Cross-disciplinary Research Capability for Discovery Science at Oxford is designed to enable projects, placements/secondments and network to be developed with a view to enabling new cross-disciplinary collaborations to form and develop new perspectives and methodologies.Building on lessons learned from the Discipline Hopping award (2022-23), we will use multiple methods to advance Oxford's cross-disciplinary capability across the breadth of discovery sciences. Enabling particularly early career researchers (ECRs) to lead a collaborative project is invaluable in their development. ECRs are not usually deemed eligible to lead collaborative, multi-disciplinary research projects, so having this opportunity in safe space is a vital development tool.Providing space and small amounts of funding to deliver workshops presenting multiple disciplinary perspectives around an identified challenge/theme, provides fertile space for new collaborations to be identified and grow across all career stages and can bring about surprising new directions for research.Placements in other research/laboratory space, and secondments into other institutions/sectors enrich and accelerate the learning around alternative perspectives and research questions, that may never have occurred otherwise and enable research uptake into policy and practice. And not simply in the project in question, but through gaining the alternative perspective, further research areas and opportunities open up for future projects and collaborations embedding the collaborative, cross-disciplinary capability in the longer term.Cross-Disciplinary Research Capability for Discovery Science at Oxford aims to increase capacity in this vital area for future research to benefit, and coupled with the learning from the Agile Initiative (Changing the Environment Program), will equip a critical mass of researchers to ensure high-risk high-reward projects in Discovery Science push the boundaries of knowledge.
