Research integrity checklist

The University of Oxford has developed a research integrity checklist which compiles all the different requirements set by applicable legislation (e.g. GDPR), the University regulation, domain specific codes as well as project-specific requirements (e.g. research involving animals, overseas-based research, etc.). The checklist is meant to be used at the start of the research to ensure compliance, but also as a tool “to engage in a broader dialogue about research integrity and good practice in research”.
