Our vision is that the UK’s research system continues to be known for its research integrity, which:  

• is central to all work and actions of all individuals, groups, and organisations in research 
• enhances and protects the quality of research 
• safeguards confidence in research  

Collaboration is at the heart of the UK Committee on Research Integrity. We invite and encourage views from the research community.
