MvdH: Educating researchers about research integrity is important. So we should start thinking about fairness and integrity already for undergraduates. We should also train the supervisors. Continuous education of everyone.

MvdH: During school/university we already start discussions similar to authorship, if we force students to work in groups, with some 'free riders' and others who do the work. That is not good for quality of education.

MvdH: Responsible conduct of research (RCR) is at the start of research integrity. There are increasing standards and trainings on how to do research and how to manage data. This adds some burden to researchers, but it also helps to reflect and do better.

MvdH: Here are the three monkeys, with a little twist: hear, see, and speak up! This is the core of all we still need to learn.
Some discussions about who will be authors of a project up front can prevent dilemmas about authorship. Point out what is not ok.

GtR does meta-science, doing research on research. They looked at instructions to authors.

GtR: It is very dramatic that former colleagues, who were friends at one point, later got involved with fraudulent research.
A Dutch survey found that 8% of researchers admitted to doing fraud. That was higher than expected.
