نبذه عن الكتاب: Biological and biomedical sciences are becoming more interdisciplinary, and scientists of the future need interdisciplinary training instead of the conventional disciplinary training. Just as Sean Eddy (2005) wisely pointed out that sending monolingual diplomats to the United Nations may not enhance international collaborations, combining strictly disciplinary scientists trained in either mathematics, computational science or molecular biology will not create a productive interdisciplinary team ready to solve interdisciplinary problems. Molecular biology is an interdisciplinary science back in its heyday, and founders of molecular biology were often interdisciplinary scientists. Indeed, Francis Crick considered himself as “a mixture of crystallographer, biophysicist, biochemist, and geneticist” (Crick, 1965). Because it was too cumbersome to explain to people that he was such a mixture, the term “molecular biologist” came handy. To get the crystallographer, biophysicist, biochemist, and geneticist within himself to collaborate with each other probably worked better than a team with a crystallographer, a biophysicist, a biochemist and a geneticist who may not even be interested in each other’s problems
