Summer School of Responsible Research: How to put the European Code of Conduct for Research Integrity into practice?

When: 29 August - 2 September 2022
Where: University of Split School of Medicine, Split, Croatia

Summer School on Responsible Research (RR) is designed to provide you with knowledge and skills needed for responsible conduct of research, regardless of your research background.

SSRR takes students on a five-day immersive learning experience to build the practical skills and mindset necessary for responsible research. We start from the four principles of the European Code of Conduct for Research Integrity – Reliability, Honesty, Respect, and Accountability, and take students through good research practices in a syllabus that is an innovative blend of theoretical, mindful, reflective and active practice.




This Summer School will:
• introduce you to responsible research concepts and principles of research integrity
• help you recognize the importance of science-society relationship and dimension of social responsibility
• help you understand different perspectives and approaches to responsible research
• provide you with valuable networking opportunities and exchange of experiences with researchers from different backgrounds

The SSRR is supported by the International Society for Global Health.

The SSRR teachers thus offer deep subject knowledge that is relatable to researchers from different career stages and perspectives. All teachers have active  research experience from H2020 research grants, such as EnTIREVIRT2UE and SOPs4RI.

By choosing the SSRR, you will be coming to the best place in summer months. Split is a city on the Adriatic coast, and boasts more than 2000 years of history as a settlement. You can enjoy not only the Diocletian Palace from the Roman times, but also the surrounding islands or the hinterland and its mountains. Come before the SSRR or stay after it to explore the fascinating Adriatic coast that offers hiking, biking, water sports, great food, music and much more.
 9. Homework on the beach
The campus of the University of Split School of Medicine is within a short walk from the Split beaches. In the middle of the SSRR, we will also hold a Walkshop, where we go “off the grid” to discuss research integrity in a surrounding that is different from the SSRR classroom. The walkshop ends with a sightseeing and dinner at the Diocletian Palace in the centre of the city.
