Join us to unpack some of the most serious ethical challenges in research, including data breaches and confidentiality failures. Using a real-world case study, we’ll examine what went wrong when sensitive personal data was mishandled, what could have prevented the crisis, and what researchers did to make it right.
You’ll learn how to recognize the risks, respond to breaches, and strengthen your approach to data management. We'll cover key responsibilities around data security, institutional obligations, and what Responsible Conduct of Research (RCR) looks like in action.
Tune into this engaging live webinar featuring expert presentations, thought-provoking prompts, and real-world insight that will help you prevent, identify, or mitigate misconduct or breaches in your own research. Interaction happens through chat or live Q&A, so come ready to listen, reflect, and contribute.
