Responsible Conduct of Research
Interdisciplinary researchers such as computational biologists must navigate an increasingly complex world involving not only scientific and technical problems, but also many difficult legal, ethical, and social issues. Thus, it is essential that computational biologists receive training in the responsible conduct of research. The following resources are available on the Carnegie Mellon and University of Pittsburgh websites, providing guidance to students on a range of issues:
