The IUI In-Person RCR Seminar Series is offered by the IU Center for Bioethics. Participants will refine and define expected standards of conduct, increase their confidence in dealing with difficult issues, and meet current NIH requirements for formal training in research ethics. Each session will open with an introduction to RCR principles and policies related to the day’s topic and will be followed by at least one case example for attendees to discuss. The series runs January through December.
