Principles of good scientific practice can be violated in many ways, from improper application of scientific methods or documenting data, to serious scientific misconduct through deliberate falsification or deceit. This workshop will provide an introduction to these important topics, with subject-specific input from senior IMPRS-IS and CLS researchers.
Scientific honesty and the observance of the principles of good scientific practice are essential in all scientific work which seeks to expand our knowledge and which is intended to earn respect from the public. The principles of good scientific practice can be violated in many ways – from a lack of care in the application of scientific methods or in documenting data, to serious scientific misconduct through deliberate falsification or deceit. Every Ph.D. student should have a professional understanding of these topics.
