Speaking about the event, Steven Inchcoombe, President of Research at Springer Nature Group said “As guardians of the academic record, Springer Nature is absolutely dedicated to ensuring the integrity of the content we publish, not only by rigorously assessing the research that reaches us, but also by supporting best practice from the very beginning of the research process. RISE is a strategic initiative aimed at strengthening India’s research landscape by nurturing talent, making research more open and transparent, and improving its quality. It ensures that Indian researchers have free access to vital resources and training materials on research integrity, promoting transparency and accountability. Through empowerment, early career researchers gain the knowledge and tools to champion ethical research practices, strengthening India's research integrity position in the world.”
