Responsible Conduct of Research “Ethics Week” Workshops @ UF

Marston Science Library will host the second annual Responsible Conduct of Research “Ethics Week” workshops on October 24 and 25, 2012. This year’s seminars feature two of the hottest issues in ethics: mentorship and data management. These workshops complement the 2012 Graduate Student Research Day sponsored by the Graduate School and the I-Cubed Program.

Both workshops will be in Marston Science Library, Room 107.

October 24, 10:30 a.m.-noon: Ben Dunn, Director of the UF-HHMI Science for Life Program, will speak on mentoring. He will address establishing a relationship with a mentor/mentee, repairing a problematic relationship and whether/how to break up and find a replacement.

October 25, 9:30-11:00 a.m.: Marc Branham of Entomology & Nematology will speak on data management. He has recently served as an NSF Program Director and will discuss what NSF reviewers are seeking in data management plans, data ownership perspectives, best practices and case studies.
