Research Integrity Advisors

A Research Integrity Advisor can:

• provide confidential and independent advice
• help you identify and clarify the issues based on areas of research conduct, principles and values of responsible research, and/or other issues impacting on, or directly connected to research
• provide information to help you make an informed decision about your options/how to proceed
• provide a limited personal opinion on the advantages and disadvantages of adopting a particular course of action and/or the options available.

Beyond this, an Research Integrity Advisor cannot take any further action or role in the matter.

A Research Integrity Advisor cannot:

• act as an advocate, represent or promote your interests
• provide advice as to the likely outcome, or how you must proceed
• express an opinion on behalf of VU or any other person
• investigate the matter, or take any steps to obtain further information about the facts or issues
• make a complaint or take any action on your behalf
• solve the problem for you.

You do not have to identify yourself, and can be assured that all communications with an Research Integrity Advisor will remain confidential. An advisor's obligation to maintain confidentiality is ongoing and continues after the completion of the matter.
