Proposed Project: Research Mentoring
Dyad: Comparing the Views of Faculty
Advisors/Mentors and Their Ph.D.
Students on Training/Learning to Be a
Responsible Researcher –OMB No.
0990–New-Office of Research Integrity
(ORI).
Abstract: This effort is consistent with
the directive to ORI to ‘‘focus more on
preventing misconduct and promoting
research integrity’’ (Federal Register:
May 12, 2000, Volume 65, Number 93).
Study results will be used to promote
mentoring best practices, in particular
for the responsible conduct of research,
by raising awareness of the role of
faculty members in developing young
scientists, promoting discussion in the
scientific community, and informing
institutions on where and how to focus
resources from the unique perspective
of both faculty and doctoral student. To
gather information to promote ORI’s
objectives, this study will use in-depth
personal interviews with 100 faculty
who participated in the ORI Faculty
Survey and agreed to be re-contacted
and 100 matched doctoral students who
have graduated in the last five years.
These one-time interviews will be used
to find out how faculty and their
students view the training and
education of responsible researchers.
Interviews with matched faculty/
doctoral student pairs will provide a
unique opportunity to compare these
two perspectives and will strengthen
and elaborate on the ORI Faculty Survey
results.

this interim final regulation requires
HIPAA covered entities to notify
affected individuals of a breach of their
unsecured protected health information
and, in some cases, to notify the media
of such breaches pursuant to § 164.406.
Section 164.408 requires covered
entities to provide the Secretary with
immediate notice of all breaches of
unsecured protected health information
involving more than 500 individuals.
Additionally, the Act requires covered
entities to provide the Secretary with an
annual log of all breaches of unsecured
protected health information that
involve less than 500 individuals.
Finally, business associates must notify
the covered entity of any breaches that
occur subject to § 164.410.
