Research Ethics for Biosciences and Veterinary Science Doctoral Researchers
Duration 1 day
Team Researcher Academy

This course is delivered by the Researcher Academy

Researcher Academy courses are very popular and the majority are run in both semesters to give you the opportunity to attend at a time of the year that suits you. Semester 1 courses will be available for booking from the second week of October and Semester 2 courses from the second week of February.

Process
This is a full day session consisting of lectures and group work, with breaks in between sessions. There will be opportunities to discussion specific project-related questions with the tutors at the end of the session.
 
Aims
To provide an overview of the ethical issues associated with bioscience research. The session will provide knowledge on ethical principles in research, with specific reference to codes of conduct and relevant cases / example issues. Students will be provided with an overview of formal review processes associated with biosciences research as well as knowledge on Research Ethics Committee (REC) Review processes, Research Integrity and the more recent concept of Responsible Research and Innovation (RRI) within the UK and internationally.

Booking Conditions

Latecomer policy

Researchers should plan to arrive prior to the advertised course start time. Except for exceptional reasons, there will be no admittance to a Researcher Academy or Faculty Training Programme (FTP) course 15 minutes after the advertised course start time.

Importance of booking commitment

When booking on to a Researcher Academy short course you are entering into a commitment to attend. If you find that you are no longer available to attend you MUST cancel your place (on the system if more than three days before the course) or if at short notice by emailing pg-training@nottingham.ac.uk. This will ensure that your place can be offered to another researcher on the waiting list. Failure to cancel a place results in other researchers missing out on places through the waiting list process.

It is unacceptable for researchers to just not attend when booked onto a course. Researcher Academy maintains records of those who repeatedly do not attend courses they have booked. This may affect future eligibility to book onto further Researcher Academy courses and will affect considerations for Researcher Academy funded opportunities.
