Research ethics and integrity
The institute and all of its researchers endorse the European Code of Conduct for Research Integrity and the Singapore Statement on Research Integrity. We incorporated research integrity in our policy declaration and raise awareness by offering training in research ethics and integrity.
ITM also installed a Commission on Research Integrity to promote research integrity at the institute and investigate any allegations of misconduct. They formulated guidelines regarding authorship in scientific publications and a FAQ about authorship.
ITM endorses the Flemish Commission on Scientific Integrity (VCWI, Vlaamse Commissie voor Wetenschappelijke Integriteit) as an advisory commission for second opinions.
