Generally, the educational training and research / development process describes the following levels of disciplines interpenetration: pluridisciplinarity, multidisciplinarity, interdisciplinarity and transdisciplinarity. The interdisciplinarity implies phenomena, general laws and concepts common to several disciplines, analyzed in contexts as varied as possible, to highlight the many facets and possibilities of their application in the area of various disciplines. Through interdisciplinarity, the horizontal transfer of knowledge from one discipline to another is being promoted. This article aims at defining the specificity of the interdisciplinarity in the Romanian medical education and research, the importance and benefits thereof in the context of the educational and research process.
