Journal Club for Diversity and Responsible Research and Innovation (DRIVERS)

Course description

The Journal Club (JC) Diversity and Responsible Research and Innovation – DRIVERS – offers a space for exchange on the intersections between "Responsible Research and Innovation" (RRI) and Diversity, Equality and Inclusion (DEI) in science. As part of a monthly meeting, we discuss selected literature on RRI and DEI. The focus is primarily on cross-cutting issues, the role of research assessment, and its reform.

DRIVERS is a continuation of the previous JC Diversity and is jointly organized by colleagues from the BIH and BIH QUEST Center, the Einstein Center for Neurosciences and the NeuroCure | Cluster of Excellence.

Learning objectives

The aim is to provide all participants with well-founded concepts and relevant facts about RRI and diversity and to reflect on these in a practice-oriented way during the discussion.

Target audience

All interested parties, especially researchers and students at Charité, BIH and other higher education and research institutions.

Prerequisites for participation

The prerequisite for participation is that you have read the texts of the respective Journal Club event. Those who regularly participate in the Journal Club can receive a certificate of participation. Please contact us for further information.
