Research Integrity at UNE

Ensuring compliance with applicable federal and state mandates in all research functions is a core responsibility of the UNE's Office of Research and Scholarship.

Research compliance staff in the Office of Research Integrity (ORI) work with various compliance committees such as the Institutional Review Board for the Protection of Human Subjects (IRB) and the Institutional Care and Use Committee (IACUC) to ensure research conducted at UNE is safe, ethical, and compliant with applicable regulations, laws, and institutional policies and to promote a culture of integrity in research and scholarly activity.
