Request a sales quoteThe Management of Scientific Integrity within Academic Medical Centers discusses the impact scientific misconduct has in eight complex case studies. Authors look at multifaceted mixtures of improper behavior, poor communication, cultural issues, adverse medical/health issues, interpersonal problems and misunderstandings to illustrate the challenge of identifying and managing what went wrong and how current policies have led to the establishment of quasi legal processes within academic institutions. The book reviews the current global regulations and concludes with a section authored by a US federal court judge who provides his perspective on the adequacy of current regulations and policies.
- Shows how complex most scientific integrity cases are, and how little is clear cut in the adjunction of each
- Discusses how timely and important scientific misconduct is, and its impact on science at large
- Reviews the current regulations and policies that guide how we manage scientific integrity
- Examines this complexity in 8 anonymous case studies
- Concludes with a section authored by an expertly qualified federal court judge
Students/researchers interested in science and ethics, graduate students in public policy and in the biomedical sciences (across disciplines), faculty at academic medical centers, and those engaged in healthcare administration who must manage the oversight of scientific integrity. Psychologists and trainees as well.
