Von der hinteren Coverseite: Scientific Integrity: Text and Cases in Responsible Conduct of Research, 3rd Edition, presents an important revision of a best–selling text in the expanding field of responsible conduct of research training. Designed primarily for graduate and postgraduate courses in the biomedical, natural, and behavioral sciences, the textbook may also be employed in upper–level undergraduate courses. Retaining the format and user–friendly design of previous editions, this timely revision delivers updates to all existing chapters, including the addition or removal of case studies for maximum currency. New to the third edition are chapter discussion questions intended to stimulate critical thought and engage students in the learning process. Written by experts in research conduct with practical teaching and research experience, the book provides vital information on new topics, including: the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act on human subject research; the Digital Millennium Copyright Act; the details of the data sharing policy enacted by the National Institutes of Health; publication policies that address biodefense issues; open access publication; electronic record keeping; and trends in documenting expectations in the mentor–trainee relationship. Most of the material in the appendixes has been updated, and a new appendix on record–keeping guidelines has been added. The revision of Scientific Integrity capitalizes on valuable student and instructor feedback, as well as the experience gained from the author’s own classroom use. Conceived as a turnkey text, the book offers background, analysis, teaching tools, and associated online resources that will enable virtually any practicing scientist to create and teach a course in the responsible conduct of research. New to the third edition of Scientific Integrity is a companion Web site that will serve as a critical reference source for students and instructors alike. Expanding upon the useful resources integrated into the text, the Web site provides a collection of online resources that will be verified and updated regularly. Updates on policies and regulations pertaining to research conduct and RCR education as well as URLs linking instructors to supplemental materials in all of the topic areas will be available. In addition, the surveys found in Appendix I of the book will be posted as PDF files for convenient classroom use.
