Ethical Challenges of Conducting Research Presentation

UNL faculty, staff and students are invited to a presentation about the ethical challenges of conducting research using online and mobile technologies at 11:45 a.m. on Thursday, February 27 in the Nebraska Union Heritage Room. A buffet lunch is included.

Professor Elizabeth Buchanan, endowed chair and director of the Center for Applied Ethics at the University of Wisconsin-Stout, will present "Ethical Challenges and Opportunities in Human Subjects Research Using Mobile and Online Technologies." A nationally recognized research ethics expert, Dr. Buchanan's talk will focus on online privacy and confidentiality, participant consent and data integrity.

I strongly encourage faculty and graduate students who are currently engaged (or plan to be) in research using new technologies, as well as administrators, to take advantage of this important opportunity, intended to facilitate innovative human-subjects related research at UNL. You will have an opportunity to engage with the speaker, ask questions and receive information that you can share with your faculty colleagues, students and staff.
