Welcome
Along with ‘impact’, ‘Interdisciplinarity’ remains one of the most pressing concerns of the academy, and one which is a driving agenda of the major funding bodies. But how to ‘do’ IDR remains challenging.
Building on our work to help support the scholarly community with drive to demonstrate the real impact of their research, we have pulled together a set of resources around conducting successful interdisciplinary research.
We’ve collated a set of tools and resources we can help you to save time, and to help you more easily achieve truly meaningful collaborations across disciplines.
Resources to help you
For a look at our 'how-to' guides, Q&A sessions with researchers, and lots of other helpful resources, please see our 'Resources to help you' section below.
