Intro to RCR (old)
Although designed to follow the normal flow of research, the chapters in this volume are all more-or-less self-contained and can be read in any order. Each opens with a short case in which students and researchers are faced with making decisions about the responsible conduct of research. Throughout the chapters, important points are summarized in bulleted lists ( P ) or noted in the margins. Each chapter ends with a set of closing questions for further discussion and resources for reference and additional reading. The Web addresses given for the resources and elsewhere in this work were current at the time of printing.
While written with all researchers in mind, special consideration has been given to the needs of students, postdocs, and researchers who do not have easy access to responsible conduct of research materials or to colleagues who can explain the intricacies of responsible conduct in research to them. Two or three hours with this book should provide anyone in this position with a better understanding of the reasons for and the scope of the most important responsibilities researchers have.
