Procedural challenges in international collaborative research
Loo, K.K.
2009
OBJECTIVE: Knowledge of the procedural requirements for international research is not widely disseminated to investigators involved in the administration of a federal grant with a foreign component. The purpose of this article is to highlight the major challenges in administrative, procedural, and equipment management aspects of grant implementation when federal funding is involved in international collaborative research.
Research and Scholarly Integrity in Graduate Education: A Comprehensive Approach
Council of Graduate Schools
This best practice guide documents the results of the Project for Scholarly Integrity, a multiyear, multi-institutional CGS initiative to identify promising practices in embedding research and scholarly integrity into graduate education. Discusses a wide range of innovative strategies including the use of assessment to enhance and build support for high quality, relevant research integrity programs.
This resource is a syllabus from GRAD 5404: Research in International Contexts. The course is intended to prepare graduate students for an international research or similar experience and to enable them to maximize the professional and personal benefits of that experience.
Research integrity: Global responsibility to foster common standards
Science policy briefing
December 2007
European Science Foundation/Office of Research Integrity
Research in all fields of endeavour is a significant feature of all societies and represents major financial commitment, whether from the public or private sector. Results and findings form the basis for policy decisions at all levels of government and the private sector. Therefore, it is of paramount importance that the research itself is conducted with integrity, in a responsible manner and in accordance with high ethical standards.

Scientific misconduct is a global problem, yet protocols for addressing it remain highly fragmented and uneven. A conference held last month in Lisbon aimed to encourage international efforts to promote research integrity and to prevent misconduct.
International dimensions of ethics education in Science and Engineering (IDEESE), University of Massachusetts Amherst
Transnational ethical conflicts are more frequent in the contemporary world and because of the greater interconnection among societies. Though scientists and engineers have maintained active contact with colleagues in other countries for centuries, until recent decades such contacts were limited to periods of study at a foreign university, occasional collaboration in labs or on projects, and exchange of research results through publication or presentation at conferences.
