Join UKRIO’s renowned annual research integrity conference on the topic of “good research practice in a changing world”.

About this Event

Building on the successes of UKRIO’s monthly research integrity webinars, we have taken our annual conference entirely online. For the first time in its 8-year history, this free event will take place across two days, Wednesday 19 May and Thursday 20 May, with a deep dive into research integrity and “good research practice in a changing world”.

UKRIO’s annual conference is the principal research integrity event in the UK and, since 2013, has been an essential resource for the research community and policy makers.

This year we are delighted to announce the event will be opened by Professor Dame Ottoline Leyser, the Chief Executive of UK Research and Innovation and Regius Professor of Botany at the University of Cambridge.

Tracey Brown OBE, Director of Sense About Science, will open the second day of the conference, sharing her perspective on good research practice and the communication of research.

Speakers from the research community will come together to discuss “good research practice in a changing world”, including:

• How to support a culture of high quality and ethical research, now and in the future.
• How to respond to issues of poor practice and concerns about fraud.
• Updating delegates on key developments in research integrity and stimulating debate on good research practice.

This event will allow for interaction and encourages participants to share their experiences and discuss the issues that matter to them during Q&A sessions with our speakers (anonymously, if they so wish).

This conference is aimed at anyone with an interest in good research practice, research integrity, research ethics, improving research culture, ensuring quality and high ethical standards in research, or in addressing sloppiness or misconduct in research.

The event will be of particular interest to researchers, research students and research administrators; people with managerial, supervisory or leadership roles in research; and people working in the fields of research integrity, research ethics, research culture, research governance or research policy
