Ethical and Responsible Research
Ethical and Responsible Research (ER2) research projects use fundamental research to produce knowledge about what constitutes or promotes responsible or irresponsible conduct of research and why, as well as how to best instill this knowledge into researchers, practitioners, and educators at all career stages. In some cases, projects will include the development of interventions or applications to ensure ethical and responsible research conduct.
The program funds research projects that identify:
(1) factors that are effective in the formation of ethical science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) researchers;
(2) approaches to developing those factors in all STEM fields that NSF supports; and
(3) why and how those factors and approaches increase responsibly conducted research.
