Year: 2026

Type: article

Abstract: How can we break down disciplinary silos in biology? This study presents a project-based learning model implemented over 3 yr with 675 students. By exploring concrete and authentic research topics, students combine multidisciplinary investigation with the development of key transferable skills including teamwork, scientific communication, and autonomy. A practical guide to transforming biology education and better preparing future physiologists for interdisciplinary challenges.
