Organizing graduate life sciences education around nodes and connections

Cell. 2011 Aug 19;146(4):506-9. doi: 10.1016/j.cell.2011.08.004.

Abstract

Biomedical education is currently faced with a number of significant challenges, including the explosion of information and the need to train researchers who can work across traditional disciplinary boundaries. We propose a new integrated model for graduate education in the life sciences that addresses these issues.
