Aim and content

This workshop is only for postdocs and assistant professors employed at SUND



SUND offers a four-hour workshop on responsible conduct of research to all postdocs and assistant professors. The aim of the workshop is to promote responsible conduct of research in a Danish context through case-based presentations and group discussions. The course is in line with the Danish Code of Conduct for Research Integrity, which stipulates that all postdocs should be offered guidance in issues related to research integrity.

The workshop is based on case studies and provides the opportunity for participants to reflect on their own experiences.

Topics include:

1. Authorship and collaboration

2. Data acquisition and data management

3. Conflict of interests

4. Research misconduct


The workshop will address questions, such as:


• How do I maintain my freedom of research if my research is funded by a private company?

• What are the responsibilities of an independent researcher or group leader?


Other topics that will be addressed are:

• Documentation of scientific results

• Managing research data

• Intellectual property rights


Please note that it is mandatory to participate in the RCR workshop for all postdocs and assistant professors employed at SUND, including PhD students who have participated in RCR1 and RCR2 during their PhD studies at SUND.
