Symposium: "Responsible Conduct of Research: 4-23-08”
PowerPoint Presentation
Best Practices
Everyday Practices that Compromise Integrity in Research & How to Respond to Them
The importance of integrity in research is today widely recognized and addressed in a number of ways, from strict Federal policies on research misconduct and the proper review of research with animals and humans to a growing number of programs designed to train new researchers and monitor their behavior. However, not all researchers live up to the professional standards expected of them. This talk will discuss what is known about and society's response to a wide range of misbehaviors in research, from serious misconduct to seemingly minor questionable practices. The keynote address, delivered by Professor Nicholas Steneck, will conclude a summary of the challenges and responsibilities faced by researchers in day-to-day practice. This material is designed to provide background for break-out group discussions of best practices and a concluding interactive session with the speaker on how best practices can be adopted and taken seriously. Professor Steneck is the Director of the Research Ethics and Integrity Program of the Michigan Institute for Clinical and Health Research.
