Responsible Conduct of Research

The pursuit, preservation and transferring of new knowledge must express the highest integrity of science and reflect the character and integrity of an institution and its faculty and students. Misconduct in research and scholarly activities threatens these tenets and will not be tolerated at Virginia Commonwealth University. VCU's misconduct policy as well as resources for promoting responsible conduct of research are available at: http://www.research.vcu.edu/vpr/resources/rcr.htm.
