+# Interdisciplinary Career Resources 
+
+This page summarises some helpful resources to help interdisciplinary researchers navigate thier career paths. 
+These have been identified, curated and collected in response to the [XNET](www.xnet.bio) project that ran 2022-2024 to assess the career barriers facing 
+interdisciplinary researchers (particularly those at the intersection of computation and biology). 
+
+During this project several barriers were identified that face researchers 
+  - Lack of suitable mentorship
+  - Longer and non-linear career paths that do not fit the traditional academic mould
+  - Undefined career routes
+  - Challenges of communicating to audiences with different backgrounds
+  - Challenges fitting into promotion, funding or publishing critera
+  - Feeling like a 'jack of all trades, master of none'
+
+We interviewed and ran workshops with funders, researchers, research professionals, research culture
+and equality, diversity and inclusion experts and industry leaders to identify core skills and areas that researchers felt needed development. 
+Here is a summary of useful resources that interdisciplinary researchers might find useful to progress thier careers.
