Merry Christmas from Cyril and Håkan!

Merry Christmas dear colleagues!

Here is an update from SIG Curriculum of Responsible Research.

Throughout the year, we have continued working on our article, which explores what a course in research ethics or research integrity for PhD students can and should include. We discussed the article’s content, among other occasions, at the 8th World Conference on Research Integrity. The article was submitted in September, but we have not yet received comments from the reviewers.

Short description
The article highlights the critical need for effective teaching strategies in research integrity (RI), addressing educators’ uncertainty about best practices. We advocate for an ethics-inclusive approach, emphasizing the ethical dimensions of research beyond regulatory compliance. The appendix includes a tested course package, offering practical content and guidance to help educators, especially those without ethics expertise, design meaningful RI courses. Focused on PhD students, the article aims to equip educators with tools to advance RI education and foster shared learning within the research community

We strongly believe that our article can make an important contribution and we will continue refining it until it is accepted for publication.

All the best
