Research integrity

We uphold the highest quality standards in our scientific research and consider a culture of scientific integrity, critical thinking, honesty, openness, and transparency as essential prerequisites for high-quality research.

Research ethics and integrity

ITM and its researchers endorse the European Code 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 provide the following documents:

ITM endorses the Flemish Commission on Scientific Integrity (VCWI) as an advisory commission for second opinions.
