The collaborative workshop “Responsible Research and Building an Ethical Culture” will feature a discussion of ethical issues that arise in their research. Participants will explore existing guidelines and best practices on how to resolve or better handle these issues. Researchers will jointly develop draft guidelines to help future investigators navigate these ethical questions. This workshop fulfills the NIH/HSF requirements for in-person responsible conduct of research training.
For awardees of federal grants, participation in this workshop is required every four years.
Illinois Tech offers these workshops at least twice a semester. They are tailored to fit the specific research goals and ethical issues in the work conducted by the university’s investigators. Individual research groups are also welcome to schedule a session that can be customized to fit goals and issues unique to their work. To schedule a session, please email Kelly Laas at laas@illinoistech.edu.
