Introduction to Ethics in Research

To protect the dignity, rights and welfare of research participants and researchers, it is crucial to adhere to the utmost ethical principles. Ethics and integrity integrated into research practices can enable research to be conducted according to the highest standards, and with the minimal risk of adverse or harmful outcomes or consequences.

This hybrid webinar, part of the project “A New Ecosystem for Health Research & Data Science”, aims to provide participants with a fundamental understanding of research ethics. Attendees will learn about the basics of ethics, informed voluntary consent, the fundamental principles of ethics, and the evaluation of ethical issues in health research.

These topics will guide researchers in designing and conducting studies in an ethically responsible manner. By understanding and evaluating these ethical issues, researchers can make informed decisions and take appropriate measures to ensure ethical standards are upheld.
