Practical challenges of implementing policies for early academic careers (by invitation only)

  • academic session
  • Highlight

YERUN, the Young European Research Universities Network, warmly invites policy-makers,  university representatives or other stakeholders from the sector to the fourth and final event of its lunchtime series on early career researchers: Practical challenges of implementing policies for early academic careers. Attendance is by invitation only.

YERUN lunchtime series June 2023

Despite the widely acknowledged importance of scientific integrity, until recently, it remained largely implicit. While most researchers are familiar with examples of fabrication, falsification and plagiarism (FFP) from the media, researchers will encounter less obvious scientific integrity dilemmas throughout their careers. Examples are authorship issues and difficulties publishing null-finding. Thus, worldwide, nationwide and at Maastricht University, awareness should be raised. Furthermore, there should be a provision for researchers to engage in discussions about dilemmas and challenges within a safe group.

Objectives

  • Raise awareness.
  • Differentiate between questionable research practise and responsible research practise in all phases of research.
  • Acquire knowledge on where to find guidelines.
  • Integrate and solidify ethical practices into daily research routine.
  • Develop skills to speak up in case of concerns.
  • Engage in discussions regarding scientific integrity issues within a safe and supportive environment.
