Mission Statement | Lectures | Discussion Groups | Registration | Resources | FAQ | Contact Biomedical Research Integrity Series Sponsored by the Department of Medical History & Ethics The Public Health Service (PHS) and its research institutions require that all pre-and post-doctoral researchers supported by PHS training grants receive training in the responsible conduct of research. The School of Medicine has developed a program of lectures with associated discussion groups, entitled the Biomedical Research Integrity (BRI) Series, for its researchers to meet this requirement. All School of Medicine trainees are required to participate. REGISTRATION FOR LECTURES AND DISCUSSION GROUPS FOR 2007 OPENED JUNE 6, 2007 AND WILL REMAIN OPEN UNTIL JULY 15, 2007. PHS REQUIREMENTS: Over 450 trainees participated in the series 2006. Attendance is recorded and subject to PHS review. Attendance is also reported to department chairs and principal investigators to monitor their trainees' participation. Trainees are allowed to participate in several BRI Series over the course of their traineeship, permitting them a reasonable degree of flexibility in meeting the attendance requirement. Please check with the Principal Investigator of the grant on which you are supported to determine the number of lectures and discussion groups required to satisfy the NIH requirement. The specifics on PHS policy can be found at: http://ori.dhhs.gov/policies/RCR_Policy.shtml The 2007 Biomedical Research Integrity Series Lectures are announced. Registration for lectures and discussion groups will open June 6, 2007. For those who cannot attend them, lectures are videotaped. Please note that PHS does not require that attendance be tracked at the institutional level. Thus, training grants have the option to track training not recorded in our report. Videotapes of the 2007 Lectures will be available at the Health Sciences Library, as well as at the libraries of Harborview, FHCRC, CHRMC, and VAMC. For access to videos tapes of lectures from previous years, please contact mheinfo@u.washington.edu or at (206) 221-6548. Videotapes from previous years are only available at the offices of Medical History & Ethics. You must register in order to receive attendance "credit". All UW lectures are held from 12 – 1 p.m. Dates and times for FHCRC lectures are listed below each speaker. Thursday, June 28, 2007 Wednesday, July 25, 2007 Tuesday, August 28, 2007
II. DISCUSSION GROUPS. Pre-registration is required for all discussion groups. REGISTRATION FOR LECTURES AND DISCUSSION GROUPS FOR 2007 OPENED JUNE 6, 2007 AND WILL REMAIN OPEN UNTIL JULY 15, 2007. Trainees are required to participate in a series of seminars and discussion sessions on the ethics of biomedical research and are therefore given priority registration. Other interested individuals are welcome to register for discussion groups on a space-available basis; all individuals can begin registering as soon as registration opens, although SOM trainees will be assigned to their preferred discussion groups first. Meeting locations for discussion groups will be provided one week prior to the scheduled discussion group via email to registered participants only. Please contact Margaret Mitchell at 206.221.6548 or mheinfo@u.washington.edu if you have question. Attendance "credit" will only be awarded for attending discussion groups for which you have pre-registered and have received confirmation of enrollment.
