"How to Blow the Whistle and Still Have a Career Afterwards"

NCPRE will be revisiting a classic 1998 paper by CK Gunsalus, NCPRE Director and Principal Investigator, at the Annual Association for Practical and Professional Ethics conference in Cincinnati, Ohio on March 24, 2024. The paper is open access through Science and Engineering Ethics through March 1, 2024. Read the article here.

Abstract: Filing charges of scientific misconduct can be a risky and dangerous endeavor. This article presents rules of conduct to follow when considering whether to report perceived misconduct, and a set of step-by-step procedures for responsible whistleblowing that describe how to do so once the decision to report misconduct has been made. This advice is framed within the university setting, and can be generalized to managing conflicts and disputes at work, and not limited just to situations where whistleblowing is considered.
