(Australia) Bruce Lander KC: A Suggestion for a Statutory Body to Deal with Allegations of Research Misconduct – (Bruce Lander | September 2022)
vIn this cogent and well-presented suggestion, Bruce Lander KC discusses a national investigative body for alleged research misconduct. We have discussed before our belief that institutions have an intolerable conflict of interest when it comes to the investigation and action on alleged research misconduct, we are also not convinced that ARIC really fills the need Australia has for an expert, independent and well-resourced body to act on such matters. Bruce’s suggestion is an incredibly welcome suggestion that could positively change the responsible research landscape in Australia.
