Research Misconduct Prevention

This module is devoted to prevention of research misconduct. This module is focused primarily on the federal research misconduct requirements for Public Health Service (PHS) funded research, the group of Health and Human Services agencies, such as NIH, CDC and FDA, that provide the majority of Mass General Brigham federal research funding.

Our goal is to provide you with the basic knowledge you need to meet your responsibilities and to recommend best practices to help you navigate through regulatory and institutional requirements that at times can seem daunting to even the most seasoned PI.
