G1.00001: Case Studies in Science Ethics Invited Speaker: Everyone in science should have ethics education training.~ I have seen graduate students taken advantage of by their mentors.~Many of us have seen misconduct...but what should we do about it?~Young scientists are often unaware of the rules in science and make mistakes because of their ignorance of the rules in that particular field of study.~Then there are an increasing number of cases in the news of overt cases of misrepresentation in science.~All are welcome to attend this discussion of case studies.~A case study on topics such as: how to treat data properly, how our values in science affect our work, who gets authorship on scientific papers, who is first author on a paper, what you should do if you uncover misconduct or plagiarism in your university, and we will discuss the scientist's role in society.~This will be a painless, non-confrontational small group, then large group discussion of each case [Preview Abstract] |
