Denise Caruso and Diana Rhoten, Ph.D., the executive director and the managing director of the Hybrid Vigor Institute, have published the Institute's first white paper.

Titled LEAD, FOLLOW, GET OUT OF THE WAY: Sidestepping the Barriers to Effective Practice of Interdisciplinarity, the paper is a thorough investigation of the state of interdisciplinary practice in the United States, and the first product directed toward the organization's mission to create new research practices for the 21st century.

The Institute has also selected four program areas which it believes will provide the most fruitful environment within which to deploy its unique approach to interdisciplinary knowledge production. They are Earth Systems, Health Determinants, Human Perception and Interdisciplinary Practice. More specific information is available on the Program Areas page.
