Responsible conduct of research

EMBO is increasingly involved in work to understand the parameters of the responsible conduct of research and how best to provide this information to scientists. Our work focuses on the activities of scientists at the bench or computer, issues of research integrity in the writing and publication of research results, and the roles of scientists in society.

• Talk on Responsible Conduct of Research at the Annual Meeting for EMBO fellows resident in the US, New York, 18^th November 2012

• The Science Policy Programme is involved in the development of an on-line training course on responsible conduct of research. The project is lead by Epigeum, an academic and for-profit consortium, and will soon be available to EMBO Members, Fellows, and Young Investigators.
