Slides and video are now posted from the October 23 and 25 Ethical and Responsible Research Program webinars:

NSF's Ethical and Responsible Research Program (ER2) held two informational webinar sessions in October about the program's new funding solicitation. The same topics were covered in both sessions and one session was recorded. Program directors provided an overview of the new funding solicitation, highlighted major changes and discussed the goals of the program. 

The ER2 program supports fundamental science centered on the responsible and ethical conduct of research and the adoption of that knowledge by STEM researchers, practitioners and educators at all career stages. For full program details, visit the Ethical and Responsible Research Program web page.
