Responsible Conduct of Research Short Course

The Duke Office of Scientific Integrity (DOSI) provides an annual five-session workshop series in the Responsible Conduct of Research (RCR). This course is designed to help recipients of NIH training, career development, research education, or dissertation research grants fulfill the federal sponsor requirement for RCR education for trainees. The NIH RCR training requirement must be taken at every career stage and at least once every four years. This means that a postdoc who completed RCR training a year ago but as a graduate student does need to renew their training. A postdoc who has taken this Duke-offered course less than four years ago does not yet need to renew their training.

This course was originally created in collaboration with Trent Center for Bioethics, Humanities & History of Medicine. For more information, email the Advancing Scientific Integrity, Services and Training (ASIST) office at asist@duke.edu.
