Comment/Description

NOTE: attendance of a seminar on Good Scientific Practice is mandatory for all GGNB (and GAUSS) doctoral students!

In the first part, the rules for writing scientific protocols and for managing and storing data will be  discussed. Additional topics include do's and dont's for writing Ph.D. theses.

In the second part, appropriate and inappropriate means of handling, processing, and displaying scientific data will be discussed (e.g. sampling and statistics, image processing), with examples of "borderline" cases being presented.

In addition, the rules of appropriate scientific conduct with respect to honesty, recognition of the work of others, authorship on publications etc. will be discussed. Furthermore, the students will be familiarized with the rules of Good Scientific Practice enacted by various organizations (such as the University of Gottingen, the DFG (German Research Council), and the Max-Planck-Society).

Finally, it will be discussed what to do and how to act in cases of unfair treatment by coworkers or in cases where there is suspicion or evidence for scientific misconduct.
