Responsible Conduct of Research

Ethical Conduct Core Service Areas

Conflict of interest and conflict of commitment are similar concepts. Typically, conflict of interest focuses on identifying financial issues that left unmanaged might cause a conflict between the investigator and his/her research or between the institution and its research enterprise. Conflict of commitment, on the other hand, has its focus on the obligations of the researcher to his or her commitment to the institution as defined by the workload and any conflict that might arise from consulting or other entrepreneurial activities. Topics covered, then, include conflicts associated with internal and/or external collaborators, financial conflicts, obligations to other constituencies, and other types of conflicts.
