Upcoming topics include peer review (Sept. 30), animal care and use (Oct. 14), mentor and mentee responsibilities (Oct. 28) and collaborative research (Nov. 18).

All sessions begin at noon in Room 201 of LaTourette Hall.

Sponsored by the Office of Research Compliance and Integrity, the forum series is designed to support high quality research and to promote graduate student professional development.

While the series is geared toward graduate students, each session is open to all, including faculty and undergraduates. Free pizza and pop are provided; those students who attend all sessions receive certificates of RCR training.

For more information, or to arrange an interpreter or additional assistance, contact Shannon Wapole at (815) 753-2882 or swapole@niu.edu.
