Research Ethics & Compliance

CREST Training Series

Traditionally, responsible conduct of research (RCR) training has focused on ensuring that investigators follow industry-, agency-, and government-specific regulations to avoid the negative consequences of non-compliance. The Compliance and Research Ethics for Science and Technology (CREST) Series takes an innovative approach to RCR training by providing University of Alabama investigators with a series of enrichment opportunities that are intended to promote and maintain a culture of ethical research and innovation.

CREST Series webinars are typically one hour and are open to all UA students, faculty, and staff. All CREST Series presentations provide in-person Responsible Conduct of Research (RCR) training credit hours towards the National Institutes of Health (NIH) 8-hour in-person RCR training requirement.
