Instructor
Dr. Katharina Beier is head of the Ombuds Office for Good Research Practice at the University of Göttingen. She is an ample expert in ethical aspects of practice and research in the fields of human health and medicine. At the GGG we are working together with her for information of PhD students in order to support good scientific practice and to avoid or to come along with conflicts.
Is it your goal to become a good scientist? Would you like to learn about the applicable rules of good research practice in general and find out which rules apply at the University of Göttingen? Are you looking for input to reflect on the importance of the rules of good research practice for your own PhD project? Have you ever thought about what you would do if you witnessed questionable research practices or were even affected by scientific misconduct yourself?
If your answer to any of these questions is "Yes", you are invited to join the online presentation by the Ombuds Office. Katharina Beier will use practical examples to give a lively picture of the wide range of topics covered by good research practice, will give you the opportunity to discuss selected case studies and will respond directly to your questions with the opportunity for subsequent personal consultation.
No preparation is necessary for participation.
