This is the latest in the series of regular free webinars from the UK Research Integrity Office on research integrity and related issues.
Each discipline of research has its own research integrity considerations. This webinar will explore research integrity issues and opportunities in arts and humanities research, exploring the needs of its researchers and how organisations can foster best practice and provide practical support.
