Mission Statement | Lectures | Discussion Groups | Registration | Resources | FAQ | Contact Biomedical Research Integrity Program Sponsored by the Department of Medical History & Ethics The Public Health Service (PHS) and its research institutions require that all pre-and post-doctoral researchers supported by PHS training grants receive training in the responsible conduct of research. The School of Medicine has developed a program of lectures with associated discussion groups, entitled the Biomedical Research Integrity (BRI) Program , for its researchers to meet this requirement. All School of Medicine trainees are required to participate. REGISTRATION FOR THE 2008 PROGRAM WILL OPEN DURING JUNE 13, 2008. PROGRAM OVERVIEW : The BRI program meets the PHS requirement for instruction in the Responsible Conduct of Research in National Research Service Award Institutional Training Grants (NIH Guide, 1994). The program covers the following topics (representing five of the seven required topics) described in the NIH Guide:
Note: Each BRI lecturer will also be asked to incorporate explicit reference to researcher/trainee responsibilities and/or collaborative science. These two topics are not currently required by NIH; however, they were included in a list of required topics prepared by NIH in 2000 (subsequently suspended) and inclusion of these topics is the national norm for RCR training. Discussion of many of the required topics is incomplete without reference to these issues.
For those seeking more resources and guidance on a topic, please see the BRI website for links to local and national policies, sample cases with discussion, and current articles. Please check with the Principal Investigator of the grant on which you are supported to determine the number of lectures and discussion groups required to satisfy the NIH requirement. The specifics on PHS policy can be found at: http://ori.dhhs.gov/policies/RCR_Policy.shtml Wednesday, July 2, 2008 PHS Topic: Conflict of Interest and Commitment (FHCRC, 7/2/08, 2:30-3:30pm, Pelton Auditorium) Please provide your evaluation of the lecture:
Thursday, August 7, 2008 NIH Topic: Publication Practices and Responsible Authorship (FHCRC, 8/7/08, 2-3pm, Pelton Auditorium) Please provide your evaluation of the lecture:
Friday, August 15, 2008 NIH Topic: Data Acquisition, Management, Sharing, and Ownership (FHCRC, 8/15/08, 2-3pm, Pelton Auditorium) Please provide your evaluation of the lecture:https://catalysttools.washington.edu/webq/survey/mmitchel/59291 Registration for lectures and discussion groups will open June 13, 2008. Please print the registration worksheet before you attempt to register on the catalyst. For those who cannot attend them, lectures are videotaped. Please note that PHS does not require that attendance be tracked at the institutional level. Thus, training grants have the option to track training not recorded in our report. Videotapes of the 2007 Lectures will be available at the Health Sciences Library, as well as at the libraries of FHCRC, CHRMC, and VAMC through spring 2008. For access to video tapes of lectures from previous years, please contact uwbri@u.washington.edu or at (206) 221-6548. To view videos, please go to the "Resources" page. The link is at the top of this page. Videotapes from previous years are only available at the offices of Medical History & Ethics and may be viewed by making an appointment. Trainees are required to participate in a series of seminars and discussion sessions on the ethics of biomedical research and are therefore given priority registration. Other interested individuals are welcome to register for discussion groups on a space-available basis; all individuals can begin registering as soon as registration opens, although SOM trainees will be assigned to their preferred discussion groups first. Meeting locations for discussion groups will be provided one week prior to the scheduled discussion group via email to registered participants only. Please contact Margaret Mitchell at 206.221.6548 or uwbri@u.washington.edu if you have question. Attendance "credit" will only be awarded for attending discussion groups for which you have pre-registered and have received confirmation of enrollment.
