About this title

Synopsis

This book follows Dr. Redman’s 2023 book, Reconstructing Research Integrity by addressing in much greater depth one of the most consequential but ill-defined constructs in research integrity – conflict of interest (COI). COI in biomedical research is ubiquitous but so poorly defined that its frequency and consequences can rarely be identified. Many research sectors and actors have little to no guidance about how to identify and manage their own COI or those of the institutions and sectors in which they work. In addition, while the current political climate casts doubt on the existence/relevance of COI, the starkness of its tactics can provide an opportunity to move COI management beyond even the current level considered acceptable.

Progress in Research Integrity is ideal for research administrators, policy advisors, researchers, and consultants.
