This course will address the mores of scholarship and responsible practices in conducting biomedical research. Discussions will be focused on the grey areas encountered in considering and determining the best conduct for performing biomedical research and will emphasize how decisions depend on multiple factors and contexts. Issues to be discussed will span the main focus areas in the Biomedical Engineering Department: Cell and Tissue Engineering, Imaging, Genomics, Computational Medicine, Biomedical Data Science, and Neuroscience. Each week a short lecture will be presented by a faculty member, followed by breakdown into small groups for discussion and debate. Course restricted to BME PhD Students Only.
