Objectifs :
This training is proposed to doctoral students in the field of experimental sciences. Its main objective is to raise awareness regarding i) the importance of research integrity (RI) as a pillar for both the reliability of scientific result and society's trust in science and scientists and ii) the role of each and every research stakeholder in maintaining a healthy RI culture.

This training is made of two parts:
• Part 1: a theoretical introduction to the core principles of RI (2h);
• Part 2: a practical session based on interactive case studies (3h).
The contents will focus on RI-related questions and issues that are the most relevant for doctoral students, such as (non-limitative list): authorship, data management, supervision, research collaborations. Time will be allocated for discussions.

This training will enable participants to:
• Appreciate the importance of RI in research.
• Identify ethical issues and potential dilemmas in experimental science.
• Implement principles of RI in their research practices.

Programme :
In the introduction (Part 1), the origins of the current concerns for RI (both internationally and in France) will be briefly exposed. Then, you will be provided with definitions of good research practices as well as examples of such behaviors. For contrast, definitions and examples of research misconduct an other unacceptable research practices will also be presented. The expectations on doctoral students regarding RI (according to French laws) will be highlighted.

The practical session (Part 2) is designed to reinforce theoretical knowledge through scenarios inspired by real-life cases. The scenarios presented will confront you with situations that are frequently encountered in experimental sciences, and enable you to address research integrity issues in a concrete manner. For each situation, points to watch out for will be highlighted and courses of action will be identified collectively.

Pré-requis :
None

Méthode pédagogique :
Introduction: presentation
Practical session: role-playing exercises, case studies, and feedback from participants.
