About
We strive for impactful research that leaves no doubt about its integrity. If concerns arise, we address them immediately in an open and learning-oriented manner. Breaches of integrity can range from obvious forms, such as data manipulation or misleading communication, to more subtle lapses in accountability or authorship.
Next to appropriate training, policies, and procedures, we view research culture as the foundation of research quality, providing the environment in which rigorous, relevant, and innovative inquiry can flourish. Our ambition is to foster an inclusive and collaborative research culture grounded in integrity, ambition, and mutual respect.
If you have questions or concerns about research integrity, please contact our Confidential Advisors for Scientific Integrity. More information can be found on this intranet page.
