Scientific integrity forms the basis of trustworthy science", states the preamble of the DFG’s Guidelines for Safeguarding Good Scientific Practice. In his interactive lecture, Dr. Michael Schöner will discuss what scientific integrity or scientific misconduct means in this context and show, based on the most common problems in matters of supervision, publishing and data management, that there are gray areas between both extremes. The participants will get an overview of the most important national and international regulations for the compliance with good scientific practice and get to know the statutes specific to the University of Greifswald and the existing ombud system.

WHAT? The lecture series “Managing research” provides a comprehensive overview of how to initiate your first postdoctoral research project and the building blocks for a successful application and implementation. The lectures are given by experts and relevant contacts at the university. There will be time in each session to answer your questions.
