Federal Funded Research Misconduct Policy

This policy will replace the existing Scientific Misconduct in Research Policy found under GEN 1.5.(2).

On September 9, 2024, HHS released the 2024 Final Rule on Public Health Service (PHS) Policies on Research Misconduct to promote the responsible conduct of research across PHS-Funded agencies and organizations. The Final Rule will take effect on January 1, 2026. The UW Office of General Council has provided a template policy for all UW Comprehensives to adopt to be in compliance with UW System Policies and the Final Rule. This policy action seeks to implement the policy changes and ensures that the UW-Oshkosh policies and procedures for addressing allegations of research misconduct meet the requirements under 42 CFR Part 93.
