Science and Engineering Ethics is an international multidisciplinary journal dedicated to exploring ethical issues associated with science and engineering, covering professional education, research and practice as well as the effects of technological innovations and research findings on society.
While the focus of this journal is on science and engineering, contributions from a broad range of disciplines, including social sciences and humanities, are welcomed. Areas of interest include, but are not limited to, ethics of new and emerging technologies, research ethics, computer ethics, energy ethics, animals and human subjects ethics, ethics education in science and engineering, ethics in design, biomedical ethics, values in technology and innovation.
We welcome contributions that deal with these issues from an international perspective, particularly from countries that are underrepresented in these discussions.

Announcing the inaugural Computational Research Integrity Conference 2021 (CRI-CONF 2021)
When: March 23 - 25, 2021
Where: Virtual
Registration or contribution submission: cri-conf.orgThis conference's goal is to bring together research integrity officers, scientists, editors, publishers, and computer scientists to discuss scientific misconduct investigations and the opportunities and current limitations of computational methods for flagging potential scientific misconduct automatically. We hope that attendees will leave this conference with a clearer sense of the constraints and opportunities of each others' approaches.
If you work in research integrity, image/video forensics, plagiarism, educational aspects of research integrity, or any field related to research integrity and computational methods, this conference is for you. If you regularly attend the World Conference on Research Integrity (https://wcrif.org/, postponed for next year), you might be interested in coming as well.We also have a small number of slots for contributed presentations. Consider submitting your extended abstract:
