Research integrity

The community and those responsible for funding research, expect research to be conducted responsibly, ethically and with integrity. To facilitate this confidence, Metro South Health employees involved in research must be aware of and abide by the Australian Code for the Responsible Conduct of Research 2018 (‘the Code’).

Research Integrity

The research integrity poster has been developed as a guide when undertaking research to help you understand the code for the responsible conduct of research and how it applies to you.
