Your monthly dose of research news and inspiration

Mark your calendar for Research+Innovation Week 2021

How does one define UC research? Game-changing. Disruptive. Inclusive. Ethical. Boldy imaginative.

We could go on.

Join us, March 29 to April 2, for R+I/21 and see for yourself.

The week-long virtual conference will be unlike any other, with a myriad of events planned. Truly there is something for everyone, whether you're a student, faculty member, research partner or member of the public interested in seeing what UC research is all about.

If you want to be wowed; if you want to stretch your mind; if you want to be inspired—you’ll want to check out our agenda and mark your calendars.

Help us celebrate and reward ethics and integrity
The Ethics Center is accepting nominations for UC’s inaugural Ethics in Action Award.

We want to reward those who go above and beyond in their efforts to promote ethical research, scholarship and/or an ethical workplace.

There will be awards in up to three categories: One for faculty, one for students and one for staff.

Nominations (and self nominations are okay) are due March 1. The award comes with a $1,000 prize.

Submissions should include the name and job title of the nominee, a description as to why that person should win, including how their actions go beyond the disciplinary/workplace norm and the impact of those actions. Please write to a general audience and keep it to 500 words.

Self-nominations must be accompanied by a letter of support from another member of the UC community. 

Please send nominations to integrity@uc.edu.
