This is just a thought, and this may have been mentioned before and would also probably prove a logistical nightmare, but:

Would it be worthwhile, perhaps later on when things are somewhat more settled, to organize some kind of joint lab with an entry level chemistry / biology / physics course in the spring? Something where they provide the science, and we'd provide the models / simulations... that way the students can sort of connect with each other, see how the disciplines relate and mesh together, and it also means that (for one lab at least) we can afford to be a bit more specialized, since there would be less responsibility on this course to have to teach the science along with the modeling.
