Workshop on Research Integrity

Research Integrity: my journey from the bench to policy making and implementation

Abstract: The importance of the integrity of research and its relationship to working culture has come under increasingly greater scrutiny over the last years. My work has focussed on improving research culture and developing robust processes for responding when principles of research integrity are ignored. This reflects my deep commitment to advancing diversity and inclusion and the recognition that only diverse, inclusive research communities deliver the best for society. In my presentation, I will describe what research integrity entails and how it is linked to working culture. This will include ideas about how everyone can contribute to conducting research responsibly. I will share processes for addressing (potential) lack of research integrity and present case studies for discussions.

Inke Näthke is Professor Emeritus of Epithelial Biology, University of Dundee, and an expert about Research Integrity. She has developed her leadership in improving research culture, reflecting her deep commitment to advancing diversity and inclusion and the recognition that only diverse, inclusive research communities deliver the best for society.
