This topic is incorporated into the IRTG training goals.
A collaborative campus event addressing "Responsible Research" (on popular demand from previous events) was conducted in2017 together with the GraduateCenterLMU and other local graduate programs.

Avoiding Plagiarism
Good reference management and good citation practice can be learned and is often a matter of good organization.
One source for guidelines for good citation practice can be found on the LMU Faculty of Biology website: http://www.biologie.uni-muenchen.de/studium/downloads_studium/guidelines-good-practice.pdf
The LMU University Library offers free licenses for the citation management programs Citavi and Endnote.
