New this year: Research Integrity Workshops added to I&I Days lineup

We’re excited to introduce a new element to this year’s Innovation & Integrity Days program: a series of expert-led Research Integrity workshops, debuting on 9 December during the afternoon of the STM Innovator Fair. 

This addition comes in direct response to feedback from recent attendees looking for more applied, research-integrity-focused learning ahead of STM Research Integrity Day (10 December). These optional interactive sessions offer just that — a chance to explore key topics in depth the day before, fostering peer exchange and skill-building.

Held in parallel with the Fair’s afternoon session, the 1.5 hour workshops allow attendees to choose from three focused sessions, each designed to unpack essential themes in integrity and trust. You’ll leave with fresh insights, practical tools, and ideas you can apply in your day-to-day work. Registration fee for the workshops is €99.

Take your pick of three expert-led sessions: 

Forensic Scientometrics: Enhancing Research Integrity and Security for the Scholarly Ecosystem 

• Facilitated by: Leslie McIntosh (Research Integrity & Security, Digital Science) and René Aquarius (Radboudumc)
• Explore how forensic scientometrics can be used to uncover and address manipulation in the research ecosystem — and build stronger, more transparent systems of trust. 

Communication and Collaboration with Institutions 

• Facilitated by: Elizabeth Moylan (Wiley), Luigi Longobardi (IEEE), Olivia Nippe (Elsevier) 
• Learn practical strategies for working effectively with institutions when research integrity concerns arise — from knowing who to contact to building stronger partnerships across the ecosystem
  

Helping Your Editors and Reviewers Understand Research Integrity Issues 

• Facilitated by: Sabina Alam (Taylor & Francis), Daniel Acuna (ReviewerZero AI), Jigisha Patel (Research Integrity Ltd) 
• Support your editorial teams and peer reviewers with the tools and understanding they need to identify and respond to integrity issues — with interactive discussion and expert insights.

When: 9 December, 14:30–16:00
Where: BMA House, London (during STM Innovator Fair)
