Speaker - Kim Cullen
Have you ever thought any of the following: How do I get started?;
What if my idea stinks? But - it's not ready to share until it's perfect;
Where can I find the time to finish?; How do I finish it now that I hate
this thing?; or, I'll do it tomorrow...

Speaker - Tom Drysdale
There is evidence that misconduct in science is increasing. In this
session, we will look at some of the common causes of unethical
behaviour and try to understand what causes it. We will go through
specific things that you can do to prevent and deal with unethical
behaviour. Several scenarios will be discussed to demonstrate the
importance of ethical behaviour to both the individual and the process
of scientific inquiry.
