Mode of Interdisciplinary Research of Traditional Chinese Medicine:Learn from the Study of Biological Characteristics and Mathematical Representation of the Transformation from Phlegm-Dampness Constitution to Dyslipidemia
The current interdisciplinary research on traditional Chinese medicine(TCM)often comes from the simple combination of TCM application needs and mature engineering technology.Actually,higher goal of cross-disciplinary research should be the win-win development of TCM and interdisciplinary majors.In detail,to enhance the innovative development of original thinking mode of TCM,meanwhile,to stimulate the innovation of interdisciplinary majors with medical tasks.Previously,we successfully performed the research on the objective representation of pre-disease and disease state of dyslipidemia in population with phlegm-dampness constitution.Taking this project as an example,this paper discusses the methodology on scientific issue positioning,key medical tasks selection,inter-disciplinary theory,and technology exploration,to expounds the research design and ideas which could be generalized in other cross-disciplinary research of TCM.
