As data-based research permeates almost all fields of science, personal data protection has become a crucial dimension of scientific practice. This was notably brought to the fore by the Cambridge Analytica / Facebook scandal, enabled by massive data collection practices originally emanating from the academic world. The question remains of how to effectively address the challenges in the area, and the role of data protection law, (data) research ethics, or research integrity, in this regard.
This lunch event will open up a discussion on the current state of data protection in scientific research, taking stock of current developments in light of the application of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), and looking into persistent gaps. It is organised in collaboration with the Promoting Integrity as an Integral Dimension of Excellence in Research (PRINTEGER) project.
