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使项目，安置/借调和网络得以发展，以期使新的跨学科合作能够形成和发展新的观点和方法。从学科跳跃奖（2022-23）中吸取的经验教训的基础上，我们将使用多种方法来提高牛津大学在发现科学领域的跨学科能力。使特别是早期的职业研究人员（ECR）领导一个合作项目是非常宝贵的，在他们的发展。ECR通常不被认为有资格领导合作性的多学科研究项目，因此在安全空间中有这样的机会是一个至关重要的发展工具。提供空间和少量资金，以举办研讨会，围绕已确定的挑战/主题展示多学科观点，为在所有职业阶段识别和发展新的合作提供了肥沃的空间，并可以为在其他研究/实验室空间的安置，以及借调到其他机构/部门丰富和加速围绕替代观点和研究问题的学习，这可能永远不会发生，并使研究纳入政策和实践。不仅仅是在有问题的项目中，而是通过获得另一种观点，进一步的研究领域和机会为未来的项目和合作开辟了更长远的合作，跨学科的能力。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，再加上从敏捷计划（改变环境计划）中学习，将使大量研究人员能够确保发现科学中的高风险高回报项目推动知识的边界。

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.
