    In this podcast, Prof. Alistair Duff focuses on the crucial topic of Ethics. Ethics and Research Integrity have become essential areas of interest for researchers, who are often required to familiarise themselves with their university's code of research ethics, which contains numerous documents and codes. The fundamental principles all boil down to include respecting your subjects, obtaining consent when possible, handling data with care, avoiding plagiarism, and refraining from exaggeration and lying. The podcast provides practical examples drawn from real research experiences and concludes with a reminder that ethics should be integrated into the research process from the very beginning.
