International - Introduction
Efforts to respond to scientific misconduct and promote the responsible conduct
of research are being made by several countries around the world. Web sites have
been developed by organizations in some countries to address these subjects. Activities
supporting these topics include the development of policies for handling misconduct
allegations and standards of good practice as well as the convening of conferences
to discuss issues and stimulate action. Some cases have been reported in the media
and journal articles. The articles in the Activity and Misconduct Cases
sections are reprinted from the ORI Newsletter.
ORI welcomes contributions to this section about websites and activities related to the responsible conduct of research and research integrity as well as misconduct cases occurring in other countries.
