SEMINAR: Medical Writers as Research Integrity Champions: Addressing Root Causes of Publication Ethics Challenges (not for credit)

Description

This seminar positions medical writers as frontline culture change agents in research integrity, addressing
fundamental challenges facing scientific publication integrity across all journals and publication venues.
Rather than focusing solely on symptom management, participants will explore root causes of integrity
breaches and develop prevention-focused strategies.

Key Focus: Medical writers occupy a unique position in the research ecosystem through ongoing, trusted
relationships with researchers. This seminar empowers participants to leverage this advantage to drive
systemic culture change and prevent integrity violations before they occur.
