Building multi-disciplinary research teams (MDRTs) to synthesize and translate knowledge from lab and/or clinical investigations into clinical applications is a main objective of the Novel Clinical and Translational Methodologies (NCTM) program at the IIMS.
We have developed several strategies/approaches to enhance the formation of and collaboration among research team members taking into consideration MDRT structure, function and dynamic. The developed strategies encompass a range of activities directed to expand the content and boost processes related to conducting translation research among interested investigators at IIMS.
The idea is to enable MDRT work by informing, activating, and encouraging translation researchers to participate in collaborative multi-disciplinary projects to maximize their productivity. We cordially invite you to take advantage of these rich resources and activities.
Below is a brief summary of each approach:
