Education resources for guiding discussions on ethics in science.

Faculty, staff, and students at all levels of educational institutions are becoming more aware about ethical issues in the classroom and in research. As educators, it is our responsibility to provide an opportunity to discuss these issues so that future scientists will be prepared to face the many ethical challenges they may encounter. Often, unfortunately, we are reticent to engage in this discussion due solely to the lack of our own repertoire of resources regarding ethics. Thus, this summary of educational resources was compiled to promote ethics discussions in science classrooms and research programs.
