At the UTHSCSA, researchers are held to the highest standards of ethical conduct in their research. While methods vary in each discipline all UTHSCSA researchers are expected to keep the following values identified by the Office of Research Integrity in mind as they design and perform research:
HONESTY — conveying information truthfully and honoring commitments
ACCURACY— reporting findings precisely and taking care to avoid errors
EFFICIENCY— using resources wisely and avoiding waste
OBJECTIVITY— letting the facts speak for themselves and avoiding improper bias.
The Office of the Vice President for research is committed to these values and provides tools and information to guide the UTHSCSA research enterprise with these values in mind.
