Responsible Research Conversations Event at TU/e

The Responsible Research Conversations will bring together researchers and professional staff to showcase—and strengthen—TU/e’s growing ecosystem of responsible research practices. The gathering supports key TU/e priorities—Open Science, Recognition & Rewards, social safety, research integrity, sustainability, and talent development—by connecting colleagues already active in these areas and encouraging others to engage.

As TU/e advances toward its 2030 vision, fostering a culture of talent development, collaboration, and resilience is more crucial than ever. These values are inseparable from the way we conduct research: responsibly, honestly, and openly. Responsible research is not just a compliance requirement—it’s a shared opportunity to build a stronger, more collaborative, future-ready university.

This event will take place on September 18, 2025 from 9:00 to 13:00. You can register for this event by filling the registration form here: Registration Form
