Frequent areas of conflict and the gray areas between questionable scientific practice, rule violations and misconduct will be addressed using case studies from the areas of supervision, authorship and documentation. An overview of the existing ombudsman system will be given and examples of how to deal with scientific misconduct, including possible sanctions, will be presented.
