Responsible Conduct of Research
As the Responsible Conduct of Research (RCR) Coordinator for the Â鶹ӰԺ, Dr. Mary Allen manages CU Â鶹ӰԺ's requirement to train NIH and NSF students and postdocs in RCR. Furthermore, Dr. Allen teaches a yearly RCR course.
Responsible research is built on responsible people, dataÌýand policies.
I believe most people will travel through an ethical swamp in their careers. Due to my background, I wish to teach graduate students and postdocs how to best survive those ethical swamps. Long ago, I was a student in a lab in which the PI committed misconduct.
I have extensive training in data integrity and quality data collection and analysis. Quality data collection is often an overlooked aspect of big data. Understanding the metrics of what makes a data set a good data set is the key to big data training. Training in how to keep a clean data set is also crucial to efficient data analysis.Ìý
