The NRIN-on-Tour aims to engage the Dutch and international scientific communities in a dialogue on the current challenges and opportunities to foster responsible research practices at Higher Education Institutions.

The NRIN-on-Tour will host onsite sessions across Dutch Universities and Universities of Applied Sciences, with online streaming to those outside the Netherlands and those unable to travel to the host institution.

In each session, experts from the host institution will present a relevant topic related to Research Integrity, Open Science, and Responsible Conduct of Research and discuss with the audience the challenges and opportunities related to the topic presented. The onsite and online participants will be invited to ask questions and engage in an interactive dialogue with the speaker and audience.

Each session will be recorded and later included on the NRIN-on-Tour page

Imposter Phenomenon (IP)—the persistent perception of intellectual fraudulence despite objective success—is increasingly recognised for its links to anxiety, depression, and diminished professional performance. Within the academic landscape, pressures such as precarious contracts, “publish or perish” mandates, and relentless evaluation may exacerbate these feelings. However, discussing IP and mental well-being remains taboo. Additionally,  empirical research on how IP specifically impacts the research community remains sparse. This presentation explores the multifaceted impact of IP on academics and its potential influence on responsible conduct of research (RCR). I will also present preliminary findings from a nationwide survey to advocate for addressing IP in higher education.
