Reponsible Conduct of Research Training
March 26, 1-4:30 pm via Zoom
*** Required of all Alaska INBRE award recipients ***
This workshop fulfills the NIH and NSF requirements for formal RCR instruction. RCR training covers core norms, principles, regulations, and rules governing the practice of research. RCR is a required training for undergraduate students, graduate students, and postdoctoral research supported by NSF and NIH awards.
RCR is a highly recommended "best practices" course for those desiring to deepen their knowledge of ethical research and responsible conduct. It is also an excellent professsional opportunity for anyone interested in furthering a career in research.
This training is a two-part training. Part one requires compl;eting an online CITI Training module, and part two requires participating in RCR training. You must complete both parts to receive your RCR certificate.
For more information, contact the Office of Research Integrity by emailing Carla McCain at cmmccain3@alaska.edu.
