NC TraCS Institute is sponsoring a Responsible Conduct of Research (RCR) course on July 14-16, 2026, from 8 a.m. - 12 p.m. each day. This course covers all NIH-required topics for the first phase of responsible conduct of research training.

Individuals who have had prior RCR training may volunteer to serve as discussion leaders for the course to document ongoing RCR exposure. For example, if you are a K Scholar who needs ongoing RCR experiences for your grant, this an opportunity that would qualify.
