Subject: ORI to Release Interactive Movie on Research Integrity
A video simulation on research integrity will be released soon on the ORI web site. In the simulation, research misconduct causes a noted lab to lose funding, creates bad publicity to the university, and eventually causes the withdrawal of a multi-million dollar endowment. In "The Lab," viewers have the opportunity to undo the damage by assuming the roles of a graduate student, post doc, principal investigator, and a research integrity officer and make decisions to prevent misconduct from occurring unnoticed.
We believe that the interactive video will be a great resource for RCR instructors. To view the introduction to the video, go to
