Convergent research and training that supports scientists coming together across disciplines to develop creative and innovative solutions is a critical part of this culture change. This talk will reflect on recent recommendations for graduate education, National Science Foundation priorities, and the role that the NSF Research Traineeship Program is playing in our understanding of innovative training models and best practices.
