About Research Integrity Rounds
The Research Integrity Rounds are organized at 3 times a year at Radboudumc to stimulate dialogue and debate about matters of research integrity. All members of the academic community, from student to PhD candidate to professor, are invited to join this exchange, especially for master students and research staff. PhD candidates can add the Research Integrity Rounds to their Training and Supervision Plan (TSP).

Interactive theatre dialogue SCIENCE HOOPS
Join us for Research Integrity Round #26, featuring an engaging interactive theatre performance on research culture.
How can we create a positive research culture - together? That’s the central question explored in the interactive theatre dialogue SCIENCE HOOPS. How do we navigate the many demands and expectations tied to academic careers? Where does the pressure in the system really come from? What influence do researchers actually have? And what do we need from one another to move forward?
SCIENCE HOOPS invites you to step into these questions—literally. This is not your typical theatre performance. It’s an engaging mix of storytelling, reflection, and experimentation. Actors bring to life real, often recognizable, sometimes confronting, situations from the academic world—scenes that will challenge you to think about what truly matters in science.
And then, the real work begins. Your thoughts, questions, and concerns take center stage. Together, we explore the dilemmas and possibilities of academic life. You don’t just watch, you participate. Together, actors and audience shape a new narrative. Through dialogue, shared experiences, and scenario play, we imagine new ways forward with respect to issues like the tension between competition and individual ambition on the one side and collaboration and team science on the other, and topics like academic hierarchy, and enforced authorship.
