Scientific Ethics Responsible conduct of research (RCR) required by NSF, institutions decides what this means for themselves Research integrity, honesty, non plagiarism, conflict of interest Norms of establishing first authors, attribution, Management of Intellectual property, ownership of lab notebooks, data, documenting discovery, patents and publishing, export control Confidentiality, disclosure, reviewer ethics Data sharing collegiality Academic ethics- teaching, Basic training- Ethics Core CMDITR RCR modules https://nationalethicscenter.org/login Situational ethics-What would you do?- Role playing, video simulations
Macroethics Large-scale, societal, environmental, planetary issues Values and norms emerge through discipline or by government Green chemistry movement- anticipate environmental impact of production methods Cost versus safety in engineering Release of genetic modified, transgenic organisms Stem cells Social justice and environment
Unique to Biology Humane treatment of animals Human subjects- privacy and security benefit inclusion of underrepresented groups, Informed consent- protection of minors Institutional Review Board (IRB) Medical Ethics Access to, and rationing services Best clinical practice (BCP) Information Privacy and Security, HIPAA Biosafety and Biosecurity Collaborative Institutional Training Initiative CITI https://www.citiprogram.org/ The Hastings Center http://www.thehastingscenter.org/
