Institute for Modeling Collaboration and Innovation

Advancing model-based research & Fostering interdisciplinary collaboration

The Institute for Modeling Collaboration and Innovation (IMCI) at the University of Idaho advances model-based research and fosters interdisciplinary collaboration. It serves as a hub where faculty, postdocs, staff and students from a broad range of disciplines work together to solve complex-systems problems. IMCI’s Modeling Core supports research across the university by generating new approaches and seeding interdisciplinary teams and its mission emphasizes creating a cultural and physical environment that bridges disciplines and encourages grassroots collaboration. Through pilot grants, modeling access and collaborative structures, IMCI enables early-career investigators and multi-disciplinary teams to pursue novel research directions and build institutional capacity.
