What can be done to Promote Research Integrity?

Here are some suggestions:

As Researchers

Endeavor to uphold the shared values in your work and in your conduct
Adhere to good scientific practices & ensure scientific rigor

As Mentors

Set good examples for mentees: provide meaningful guidance for conduct and standards expected of scientists
Be attentive to mentees; Be ready to confront and correct aberrant behavior

As Junior Researchers

Know and uphold the shared values in scientific research
Keep good scientific records
Know and understand your institution's policies, standards and expectations on research

As Science Administrators

Annunciate clearly policies, standards and expectations for researchers and staff
Provide education and support to researchers to promote responsible conduct of research (RCR)
Establish transparent procedures for receiving and investigating scientific misconduct

As Members of the public

Demand responsible conduct in scientific research
Demand accountability from the scientific community

WE ARE ALL RESPONSIBLE FOR THE INTEGRITY OF THE RESEARCH ENTERPRISE

Everyone has a role and responsibility to play in promoting a healthy and positive research culture that is conducive to the training of young scientists and the realization of scientific innovations for the benefits of humankind.
