La University Responsibility for Misconduct in Research

  • Nicholas H. Steneck, PhD Michigan University (Ann Arbor)

Abstract

As university research administrators weigh the challenges they will face in the future, misconduct in research undoubtedly looms large. At many universities, misconduct in research has garnered increasing amounts of time and expense. This paper suggests that these trends are unlikely to change in the near future, placing greater and greater pressure on university research administrators to deal responsibly and effectively with misconduct in research. This suggestion is based on the answers to four questions, followed by a listing of four responsibilities that all research universities should consider adopting.
