Untuk implementasi kegiatan-kegiatan yang sudah banyak dilakukan, salah satunya adalah melakukan penelitian bersama yang telah berjalan mulai beberapa tahun ini antara peneliti dari UB dan Universitas Lambung Mangkurat. Kelompok Penelitian SMONAGENES untuk membangun kerjasama secara formal dengan Pusat Studi Osteoporosis, RSUD Ulin, Fakultas Kedokteran Universitas Lambung Mangkurat. Kerjasama ini bertujuan untuk meningkatkan hubungan kelembagaan antara kedua belah pihak dalam melaksanakan kegiatan yang termasuk bidang pendidikan, pelatihan, penelitian dan pengembangan, baik yang sudah berjalan maupun yang akan datang. Dalam kerjasama tersebut kedua pihak akan saling membantu dalam melaksanakan kegiatan bersama yang meliputi Penelitian dan pengembangan industri Bioteknologi, kedokteran dasar dan klinik, dan berbagi ilmu dan informasi teknologi dan publikasi bersama (smonagenes ub).

ethics

 

 

(figure copied from http://ethics.elsevier.com/)

 

“Understanding the ethical boundaries in scientific research and publishing is a key step in making sure your work gets off to the best start. From there, anything’s possible”

Bioethics research:

  • Morality is a unique feature of the life of human beings. It is deeply influenced by several cultural factors, such as history, traditions, education, religious beliefs, etc.
  • The intellectual analysis of this human dimension in all of its complexity is the goal of the discipline called Ethics. Ethics does not create morality or moral behavior.
  • The goal of ethics is much more modest: to explore the nature of moral experience, its universality and its diversity.
  • Ethics and morality are generally taken as synonyms, because they originally had the same meaning: the study of the disposition, character, or attitude of a specific person, group of people or culture, and ways of promoting or perfecting it

STEPHEN K. RITTER, C&EN WASHINGTON, 2001

Integrity and trust. these values are the hallmarks of the scientific discovery and publication process. Being objective is critical to this process, because communicating one’s research to the scientific community is at the heart of what keeps science alive. It’s also the principal way that scientists make their reputations, get jobs and promotions, and obtain sustained research support.
