It’s important that multiple stakeholders (researchers, research institutes, funding agencies and research journals) keep collaborating in the prevention of RM and QRP and in fostering RCR.

Apart from this, we need more research on research integrity, to get a better understanding about the correlation between conduct, assessment, funding and rewarding of science on one hand, and RM and QRP on the other hand.
