New RCR Micro credential Series Session 6: Collaborative Research and Intellectual PropertyPost
Responsible Conduct of Research
RCR Microcredential Series Session 6: Collaborative Research and Intellectual Property
Responsible Conduct of Research
Workshop Overview: This workshop covers the topic of collaborative research, including partnerships with industry. It ensures that researchers understand the principles of effective collaboration, including managing intellectual property, navigating contractual agreements, and maintaining academic integrity.
RSVPs recommended but not required. Attendance is taken at the event by scanning a QR code. Attendees more than 10 minutes late will not be allowed to receive credit for the micro credential.
A full syllabus of the RCR Microcredential Workshop Series offerings for Fall 2025 can be found here, as well as a list of readings and case studies for each session. Questions can be sent to rcr@umbc.edu.
More about the RCR Microcredential Series: Responsible Conduct of Research (RCR) training is required for all doctoral students, master's thesis students, and postdoctoral scholars on campus, but benefits all who are engaged with the research process. While UMBC continues to have online, self-paced CITI training that most may use to complete RCR, the National Institutes of Health (NIH) mandates that all personnel funded on their grants complete in-person, discussion-based RCR training across certain topics. This microcredential workshop serves as an option to complete that in-person, discussion-based training for one topic. Graduate students and postdocs who are not NIH funded may use online CITI training OR this set of microcredentials to satisfy their UMBC RCR

Public Health Collaboration Grants 2026
Due November, 17, 2025
Public Health Researcher Meet-Ups
Friday, October 10 | 12:00-1:00pm | PUP 204
Thursday, October 23 | 11am - 12pm | Webex
To facilitate emerging interdisciplinary faculty research
collaborations/teams we are sponsoring meet up events for all CAHSS
faculty to gather and share interests/expertise in the broad area of
health research. Attendance is encouraged, but not required, for
submission to the Public Health Collaborative Grant program.
RSVP to John Schumacher, Ph.D. jschuma@umbc.edu
What happens when faculty from different disciplines/fields come
together to explore public health? The Public Health Collaboration
Grants 2026 are designed toanswer this question!This opportunity invites
all full-timeCAHSS faculty from the social sciences, humanities, and
artsdisciplines to explore unexpected connections in their
interdisciplinary expertise with the aim of developing novel public
health research questions. Faculty with ongoing health research
projects, as well as those with absolutely no prior health research
experience, are welcome to participate.
Proposal Link: https://tinyurl.com/ywpfb3x2
The PHRC Collaboration Grants 2026 program offers a supportive cohort
model to help interdisciplinary teams of faculty develop and submit
competitive proposals for external funding. The five selected faculty
teams will meet as a cohort monthly from January through April 2026 for
facilitated workshops, writing time, and peer feedback. Team members
will receive salary support for summer 2026 and present a project update
in a mini symposium to cohort members, PHRC staff, and CAHSS dean's
office staff in August 2026. By the end of the program, faculty teams
will have both a well-prepared submission ready application and a
community of colleagues for future success.
As part of this initiative, applicants will propose a team of two to
four CAHSS faculty who will collaboratively submit a future externally
funded public health grant. Need help identifying collaborator(s) for a
faculty team? Participate in our October Research Meet-Ups or just
contact us.
For Questions: John G. Schumacher, PHRC Director, jschuma@umbc.edu
