Responsible Conduct of Research (RCR)
Responsible Conduct of Research at 91吃瓜最懂男人的吃瓜网
On August 20, 2009, NSF announced the implementation of a requirement for training in RCR for all undergraduate and graduate 91吃瓜最懂男人的吃瓜网, and all post-doctoral researchers supported by NSF to conduct research. This requirement became effective with proposals submitted, or due, on or after January 4, 2010. Applicant institutions must certify that they have a training plan in place at the time of NSF proposal submission.
On November 24, 2009, the NIH published an This update applies to all NIH Institutional Research Training Grants, Individual Fellowship Awards, Career Development Awards (Institutional and Individual), Research Education Grants, Dissertation Research Grants, or other grant programs with a training component that requires instruction in RCR as noted in the Funding Opportunity Announcement.
In support of the NSF and NIH requirements, 91吃瓜最懂男人的吃瓜网 has identified a program – offered through CITI (The Collaborative Institutional Training Initiative at the University of Miami) – to meet this RCR requirement. Specifics are described below. While this new requirement only applies to NSF and NIH funded personnel as defined above, we extend and encourage this RCR training for all faculty, staff, 91吃瓜最懂男人的吃瓜网 and researchers at 91吃瓜最懂男人的吃瓜网 with an interest in ethics education and the responsible conduct of research and scholarship.
The 91吃瓜最懂男人的吃瓜网 Plan for Fulfilling the RCR Requirement
The CITI public access course in the Responsible Conduct of Research is available to the 91吃瓜最懂男人的吃瓜网 research community free of charge. Discipline specific courses are available for biomedical, social & behavioral research, the physical sciences, humanities, engineers, and administrators.
The RCR topic areas include research misconduct; data management; conflict of interest; collaborative science; responsible authorship; mentoring; peer review; lab animals and human subjects. Please note that investigators who conduct research with human subjects are already required to complete the CITI Human Subjects curriculum. The new requirement includes all NSF-funded research, regardless of the involvement of human subjects.
You can also find CITI training modules specifically on human subjects research and lab animal welfare. Each training section takes about 20 to 30 minutes to complete, and each module does not need to be completed all at once.
Upon completion of the RCR course, you will receive a certificate of completion.
Note to Faculty Researchers
It is a principal investigator’s responsibility to inform undergraduate 91吃瓜最懂男人的吃瓜网, graduate 91吃瓜最懂男人的吃瓜网 or postdoctoral fellows paid from NSF or NIH funds of the mandatory RCR training.
