Integrity in The Research Enterprise • Starts with Institutional Commitment • Promoted and nurtured by the IRB, CoIC, IBC, IACUC, Sponsored Programs, Research Administrators. • Embraced by the investigators, staff and students as just: • “The right thing to do” "Integrity" by Canneto, Columbus, OH
Why Does Integrity and Professionalism Matter? • Risks to subjects, Risks to society. • Federal inquiry / intervention/ audit / suspensions. • Wasted resources $$$$ • Institutional embarrassment • Personal embarrassment • Loss of funding, Loss of livelihood • Legal actions, $$$$, Jail • Undermines the Public Trust • Research becomes politicized. • CoI and Pharmaceutical Industry • Justification and / or vindication for groups with anti-research agenda.

The Introductory video case studies were helpful to frame the content before I started reading. % Responders, n=818
After completing the CITI RCR Course, I have a better understanding of the ethical issues central to the research enterprise so that I can conduct my work with the highest level of integrity. Strongly disagree Strongly agree
Now that I have completed the CITI RCR Course, I am more confident in my ability to advise a student or a colleague on an issue involving the Responsible Conduct of Research. 12% 66% Strongly disagree Strongly agree
Having completed the CITI Course in the Responsible Conduct of Research and gained a better understanding of how damaging research misconduct can be to students, to the institutions and to other investigators, I am now more likely to report a clear act of research misconduct to an appropriate person at my organization.

Summary “New Integrity” by Artibella Avanti • The foundation of research integrity is research ethics education. • Early, often, multiple formats • Video • Evaluate your education programs. Are they working? How can you improve them? • Listen to the feedback from your learners.
Summary • Web based educational approaches to ethics education: • Can increase the ethics knowledge base of a wide audience. • Can prepare the learner for advanced instruction and debate. • Can provide the opportunity to customize the message to multiple audiences. • Should be a tool in a larger institutional RCR Program. • Web based education is not for everyone. Alternatives. • The Responsible Conduct of Research is beyond simply being compliant with Federal regulations and Institutional Policies; It is just the “right thing to do”.
