600+ in attendance for April’s webinar

This morning’s ‘An Introduction to Research Integrity’ webinar was well attended with over 600 delegates for the virtual event.

Dr. Jessica Butler spoke about how institutional policies and incentives drive research integrity, and how early career researchers can improve research culture.

Irene Hames shared the important issue of authorship in research: the issues researchers face in getting appropriate credit for their research contributions, the impact problems and disputes can have on their lives, professional and personal, and what can be done to help avoid problems arising.
