Responsible Conduct of Research (RCR) Training
The Office of Research Integrity is announcing the fall 2019 Responsible Conduct of Research course. It will be held Saturday, September 7, 9:00am-3:30pm in 401 IARC.  (If you need to participate via distance or are unavailable on this date please let me know.)
 
The Responsible Conduct of Research (RCR) training covers core norms, principles, regulations, and rules governing the practice of research. This particular workshop fulfills the National Science Foundation (NSF) and National Institutes of Health (NIH) requirements for formal RCR instruction. This is the only formal RCR training at UAF this semester.  RCR is a highly recommended “best practices” course for those wanting to deepen their knowledge of ethical research and responsible conduct. It is also an excellent professional opportunity for anyone interested in furthering a career in research.
 
To register, please visit: http://uafblast.wufoo.com/forms/registration-for-rcr-training/  or see attached announcement for more information. Please contact Bridget Watson at bjwatson@alaska.edu or 474-7832 with questions.
 
Let me know if you have questions or you see errors or omissions.
Thank you,
Bridget

The more you know, and the more that can be sent in a single
email, the better. Applicant organizations will begin receiving centralized
email notifications listing applications that NIH does not intend to fund from
the Advisory Council held approximately 14 months prior. NIH eRA systems will
automatically send these consolidated notifications to the Notice of Award
email address listed in the organization’s eRA Commons Institutional Profile
File (IPF) and the Authorized Organization Representatives (AORs)/Signing
Officials (SOs) listed in the included grant applications. In addition, an
“Unfunded notification sent on <mm/dd/yyyy>” message will be added to the
eRA Commons Status Information screen for each application.
