Research misconduct allegations at IU continue to rise, and have a huge impact on the affected researchers, their colleagues, and their research. Falsification, fabrication, and plagiarism can happen in any discipline, on any campus, and often looks very different from the research misconduct cases in the headlines. IU School of Medicine, Vice President of Research, and the Office of Research Compliance invite you to attend this next webinar session in research misconduct.
In this ongoing webinar series, IU Research Integrity Office (RIO) staff join faculty members who adjudicate research misconduct cases to discuss the causes and consequences of research misconduct and share lessons learned from real cases right here at IU. Learn what falsification, fabrication, and plagiarism look like in real life, how research misconduct allegations can affect you and your research, and approaches for preventing research misconduct, and research misconduct allegations, in your own labs and research teams.
Join us for the 3rd session in our series: The Culture of Research Misconduct, on April 18 from 11:30am – 1:00pm.
The environment and culture of a lab or research team is a significant predictor of research practices, both good and bad. RIO staff will share examples of how negative environments have led to allegations of research misconduct, and faculty colleagues will discuss approaches for ensuring a culture that discourages research misconduct.
