Second Brazilian Meeting on Research Integrity, Science and Publication Ethics (II BRISPE)

Especially in the last few decades, the research community
has been faced with a number of ethical challenges relating to concepts of
accountability in science and to fostering public trust in research
results, among others. These issues are of particular importance as
dialogues between science and society have become stronger in contemporary
science.

The Brazilian Meeting on Research Integrity, Science and Publication Ethics
(BRISPE) provides a forum to address ethical issues of particular relevance
to research institutions, international journals and governmental funding agencies.

The II BRISPE (May 28 - June 1, 2012) is designed to engage young and
senior researchers, editors, educators and policymakers in current
conversations about research integrity and its impact on emerging changes
to the way of doing, communicating and reviewing science at the beginning
of the 21st century. Other panels will discuss the issues related to intellectual property rights, bioethics and biopiracy in international collaborative research.
