A Safeguarding Research Overview and How-To: Crafting Successful Risk Assessments and Mitigation Strategies
Join Research Commons for a two-part workshop series titled Protecting Your Research, designed to help researchers safeguard their work and maximize its impact. The series will cover research security strategies to protect your work and will explore intellectual property (IP) to support commercialization and knowledge sharing.
A Safeguarding Research Overview and How-To: Crafting Successful Risk Assessments and Mitigation Strategies
As research security risks evolve, how do you protect your work from unwanted access or misuse, especially in sensitive technology areas, while still ensuring appropriate access to your findings?
This workshop, featuring experts from Innovation York and the Lassonde School of Engineering, will provide practical guidance on developing risk assessment plans required by federal and provincial agencies. Learn how to navigate these complex requirements, protect your research, and gain insights from a York researcher who has successfully managed security risks in their projects.
