Which of the following most accurately describes the main goal of RCR education and training?

About this Course

The National Institutes of Health [NIH], National Science Foundation [NSF], and U.S. Department of Agriculture [USDA] require certain categories of researchers to receive RCR training. However, RCR is increasingly viewed as an essential component of training, regardless of a researcher’s source of funding.

This course provides an in-depth review of the core RCR topics including authorship, collaborative research, conflicts of interest, human subjects, and research misconduct. Case studies and video examples are used to supplement key concepts.
