Best practices for ensuring scientific integrity and preventing misconduct
Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) Global Science Forum
2007
Misconduct in research (for example, fabrication, falsification, and plagiarism) damages the scientific enterprise, is a misuse of public funds, and undermines the trust of citizens in science and in government. Misconduct is a special concern for governmental administrators, who are the primary constituency of the OECD Global Science Forum.
Collaborations: Investigating International Misconduct
Boesz, C. and Lloyd, N.
2006
Nature Publishing Group
The rise in cross-border collaborations is making it more difficult to police misconduct. Christine Boesz and Nigel Lloyd argue for a framework to examine allegations and hold researchers accountable.
The current age of globalization poses challenges as to how to promote professional interaction to further international scholarly efforts in nursing. Models of global research are defined. Global health priorities are explicated, with recommendations for the conduct of outcomes-focused research leading to the generation of cost-effective interventions that contribute to the health and well-being of individuals, families, communities, and nations throughout the world.
Ethics of international clinical research collaboration — the experience of AlloStem
Chaplin, C.
2006
John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
This paper examines the ethics of international clinical collaboration in stem cell research by focusing on the AlloStem project. AlloStem is an international research programme, financed by the European Union under the Sixth Framework Programme, with the aim of advancing the use of stem cells in treating leukaemia and other haematological diseases. Several areas of ethical importance are explored.
Evaluative framework for international collaboration: Final report to the National Science Foundation
Sadrozinski, R.
2005
Center for Innovation in Research and Graduate Education
The evaluation research reported here had two central aims: To provide formative evaluation of two cases of international collaborations between U.S. and German doctoral programs and to use this experience to develop a framework for evaluation of international collaboration in doctoral-level science education that allows us to assess the benefits of such international collaborations to students, faculty and graduate programs.
Examining core elements of international research collaboration: Summary of a workshop
Sloan, S.S. and Arrison, T.
2011
National Academies Press
The globalization of science, engineering, and medical research is proceeding rapidly. The globalization of research has important implications for the U.S. research enterprise, for the U.S. government agencies, academic institutions, and companies that support and perform research, and for the world at large.
