The Brown Bag Seminar Series is an opportunity for the Clemson University community to better understand research integrity and research compliance related topics.
These seminars qualify for one hour of advanced RCR training.
Wednesday, September 14, 2022– How to avoid having to ask the question “Why was I not given authorship?” or, Structuring and communicating pre-defined requirements for student authorship on scientific publications: One example from an undergraduate neuroscience research laboratory.
How do we ensure that we give scientific “credit where credit is due”? Publication remains the “currency” of an academic career. But the criteria for authorship remain varied and the norms are still being debated. Many guidelines for authorship specify that persons who make “substantial” intellectual contributions, of various sorts, should be authors. But the primary issue today is to define the term “substantial contribution” and how to qualify it, quantify it, and communicate it effectively – ideally even before experiments begin. There are no easy solutions to this challenge. However, today’s talk will describe how one research laboratory operationalized authorship requirements, with some success, in the context of a structured program of undergraduate student mentoring.
This session is HYBRID. We encourage you to attend in person, at 413 Cooper Library. Bring your lunch and cookies will be provided.
