The Association of Australian Medical Research Institutes (AAMRI) and the Australasian Research Management Society (ARMS) are pleased to announce the release of their long anticipated Promoting Research: A Practical Guide For Research Integrity Advisors (RIAs).
While the online guide provides an overview of the requirements of the Australian Code for Responsible Conduct of Research, its main focus is to assist RIAs or those dealing with responsible conduct of research in the practical outworking of their responsibilities. Specifically, the guide provides comprehensive information, resources and case study examples on elements that constitute high quality research; breaches of the Code; the role of the Research Integrity; suggestions for handling meetings and concludes with suggestions for managing issues of concern, including record keeping.
