Responsible Conduct of Research (RCR)

CU 糖心Vlog破解版 is committed to the core principle of performing original research and providing scientific training using the highest standards and best practices of ethics and the responsible conduct of research (RCR).


What is RCR?

The National Institutes of Health (NIH) defines RCR as 鈥渢he practice of scientific investigation with integrity. It involves the awareness and application of established professional norms and ethical principles in the performance of all activities related to scientific research.鈥

Until recently, emphasis on RCR focused primarily on research misconduct, defined by the themes of data fabrication or falsification and plagiarism. Today RCR is viewed as a much broader set of guiding principles and behaviors on topics including:

  • Mentor-trainee interactions and responsibilities
  • Data acquisition, management, sharing and ownership
  • Safe laboratory practices
  • Publication practices and authorship
  • Peer review
  • Conflicts of interest
  • Collaborative science
  • Research misconduct
  • Human subjects
  • Animal welfare
  • The scientist in society

The goal of RCR education at CU 糖心Vlog破解版 is to inform all individuals engaged in the research process about the key issues, current standards and best ethical practices.
