With all that under their belts, they will embark on their research project, the goal being to apply their understanding and technical skills in the physical sciences to solving problems in the life sciences.
Convincing mathematicians that problems in the life sciences provide a challenge when the marriage between the physical sciences and mathematics has a long lineage is a dilemma currently being wrestled with at many different levels, undergraduate, postgraduate, and research council.
In addition, Elias Zerhouni, director of NIH, has, on a number of occasions, indicated his commitment to reducing the age at which investigators become independent, as well as his support for young scientists to move into nontraditional careers that bring physics, chemistry, mathematics, and the computing sciences to bear on problems in the life sciences, biology, and medicine.
This framework has been used to successfully solve many large-scale scientific computing problems, including problems in the life sciences [ 24- 26].
Some of the programmes developed include: a Brazilian music program relating the lyrics to children's rights; a sports show talking about the right to have fun and peace issues; and stories about how teens disrespect their rights on a daily basis, about discrimination against gay students and about the problems in the life of a girl who cannot walk alone.
