MICHR will offer the popular Responsible Conduct of Research (RCR) for K Awardees this winter/spring. RCR4K is a seminar that is designed to meet the requirements of the NIH K-23, or any federal or non-federal career development grant. To ensure compliance with NIH regulations, these sessions will be held in-person at NCRC.

The 5-session (10-hour) seminar is mostly interactive, practice-based, and focused on addressing RCR issues (ethics, integrity, and regulatory matters) that have arisen in the course of your own funded research. It’s relevant, interactive, and includes mentoring from experienced faculty.

Participants should register only for the sessions they wish to attend. It’s open to U-M faculty and staff. Current K scholars and K applicants will be given registration priority.

**Our aim is to provide an outstanding experience for all attendees. If you require reasonable accommodations in order to attend, please contact the organizers two weeks prior to the event.
