Interdisciplinary research is one of the well-known key words represent the 21st century As in the developed countries, interdisciplinary research is a pervasive phenomenon in Korea. This paper intends to clear up the interdependent structure among disciplines of university researches. First, 39.9% of individual and 59.8% of collaborative research projects of university researches are interdisciplinary. Second, the interdependency among disciplines of collaborative research is more severe than that of individual research. Third, The interdependency among disciplines indicates tile importance of the balanced development in all science and engineering fields.

We describe how the phenomenon of dielectric dispersion in nematic liquid crystals influences the director dynamics and thus the switching speed of nematic-based displays.

Interdisciplinary research collaboration(IRC), reflected in 3,184 response of 1997 survey in Korea, is very common. IRC within same disciplines is 60%, and IRC with other disciplines is 40%. IRC with Humanities and Social Science is 11%. Policy expectations for interdisciplinary collaboration are very different depending on disciplines. The difference between disciplines and fields such as Natural Science, Life Science and Engineering is quite noticeable. Policies for interdisciplinary research collaboration are recommended to reflect the different tendencies between disciplines, at least between fields.

Interdisciplinary convergence research is widely seen as a collaborative research between different disciplines, which is often driven by common agenda or problems in pursuit of a particular common objective. Thus, the purpose of interdisciplinary cooperation in convergence research is to bring each discipline's unique perspective together with the academic expertise of researchers in order to share common problems that cannot be solved effectively without research partnership. We present empirical evidence on how interdisciplinary research relationships are formed to facilitate research networking in convergence relations. In particular, we used network analysis to investigate how interdisciplinary linkages and convergence research networks has formed over time. We found that the convergence research networks were implemented by the interdisciplinary convergence research support program as intended. We did find that research field with high indegree and outdegree in a network played critical roles on the dynamics and degree of interdisciplinarity. Finally, we could find evidence that the role of liaison brokers triggered relational dynamics in interdisciplinary research collaboration.

As culture content industry is regarded as a high value-added creation industry, many universities have run various kinds of programs such as interdisciplinary programs to develop human resources recently. J University has also offered a culture content interdisciplinary program since 2006. 6 departments are engaged in the interdisciplinary program. However, the research related to the assessment of courses and management about interdisciplinary programs rarely exists. In this paper, we firstly analyze the satisfaction levels of the classes and the management of the culture content interdisciplinary program runs in our University. In addition, in order to propose a desirable method to run the interdisciplinary program, we analyze the comprehension levels of students and the effectiveness of the education. Finally, we propose a future direction for a successful program based on our analysis results.

Diketopiperazine is produced by various organisms, including bacteria, fungi, and animals, and has been suggested as a novel signal molecule involved in the modulation of genes with various biological functions. Vibrio vulnificus, which causes septicemia in humans, produces cyclo($\small{L}$-phenylalanine-$\small{L}$-proline) (cFP). To understand the biological roles of cFP, the effect of the compound on the expression of the total mRNA in V. vulnificus was assessed by next-generation sequencing. Based on the transcriptomic analysis, we classified the cFP-regulated genes into functional categories and clustered them according to the expression patterns resulted from treatment with cFP. From a total of 4,673 genes, excepting the genes encoding tRNA in V. vulnificus, 356 genes were up-regulated and 602 genes were down-regulated with an RPKM (reads per kilobase per million) value above 3. The genes most highly induced by cFP comprised those associated with the transport and metabolism of inorganic molecules, particularly iron. The genes negatively regulated by cFP included those associated with energy production and conversion, as well as carbohydrate metabolism. Noticeably, numerous genes related with biofilm formation were modulated by cFP. We demonstrated that cFP interferes significantly with the biofilm formation of V. vulnificus.
