We are testing a new system for linking grants to scientists.
The funding information displayed below comes from the
NIH Research Portfolio Online Reporting Tools and the
NSF Award Database.
The grant data on this page is limited to grants awarded in the United States and is thus partial. It can nonetheless be used to understand how funding patterns influence mentorship networks and vice-versa, which has deep implications on how research is done.
You can help! If you notice any innacuracies, please
sign in and mark grants as correct or incorrect matches.

Research Communication Ethics Project @ Kansas State University
This action funds a pilot for the Research Communication Ethics Project (RCEP), a combined research/education project that will use survey data about the attitudes of scientists to develop a training curriculum for graduate students across the sciences regarding the ethical obligations of scientists in communicating with the general public.
Scientists have ethical obligations to communicate research conclusions to the lay public; however, these obligations have received relatively little attention in research ethics curricula, and the exceptions tend to focus on avoiding misunderstanding in communications between scientists and journalists. Effective communication requires that information be delivered in ways that are sensitive to prior misinformation believed by the audience, to unavoidable cognitive biases, and to audience perceptions of the character, competencies, and agendas of the scientist. Scientists may commonly make mistaken assumptions and, if so, those assumptions will compromise effective communication. Effective training in the ethics of communication with the non-scientific public therefore requires prior information. The RCEP will use survey data to answer these questions. This may form for basis for a training curriculum. RCEP will have broader impact by improving training in the ethical responsibilities governing communication with the non-scientific public in significant ways.
