Tuesday, August 29, 2023

12:00 – 1:00pm

The Office of Research & Sponsored Programs Foundation is pleased to host this CSU-exclusive webinar on the National Science Foundation’s Ethical and Responsible Research Program (ER2), presented by NSF Program Director, Jason Borenstein.

ABOUT: The goal of NSF’s Ethical and Responsible Research Program (ER2) initiative is to fund research projects that identify: (1) factors that are effective in the formation of ethical science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) researchers; (2) approaches to developing those factors in all STEM fields that NSF supports; and (3) why and how those factors and approaches increase responsibly conducted research.

Ethical issues in emerging scientific and technological areas are of particular interest as are new ethical issues created by changing cultural norms. Those topics include, but are not limited to:

• environmental change, climate mitigation and adaptation research

• artificial intelligence and robotics

• sensor data and other digital representations of human experiences

• quantum research

• bioeconomy ecosystems: society and biotechnology

• advanced communications technologies

• equity and inclusion in STEM research

• the prevention of sexual harassment in STEM

• the ethical norms of indigenous and international STEM research.
