Abstract

The R³ Center for Innovation in Science Education (R³ISE), established at Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health, addresses critical gaps in scientific education by instilling the core values of rigorous research, reproducible methods, and scientific responsibility in our students. Through graduate- and professional-level courses, certificate programs, workshops, and open-access resources, R³ISE fosters critical thinking, communication, leadership, and other skills essential for scientists.

In this Backstory piece, faculty, students, alumni, and network partners reflect on their experiences with R³ISE, which were highlighted in the past year’s annual symposium. In this symposium, themes such as ethical leadership, translating classroom theory into practice, and strategies to combat misinformation highlighted R³ISE sustained efforts and proposed further directions. These reflections exemplify how the R³ISE community continues to grow—fostering scientific integrity, resilience, and empathy within a global network committed to excellence and responsibility in the biomedical sciences.

生物医学科学培训的交叉学科：R3科学教育创新中心

R3科学教育创新中心（R3ISE）成立于约翰霍普金斯大学彭博公共卫生学院，通过向学生灌输严谨研究、可重复方法和科学责任的核心价值观，解决了科学教育中的关键空白。通过研究生和专业水平的课程，证书课程，研讨会和开放获取资源，R3ISE培养批判性思维，沟通，领导能力和其他对科学家至关重要的技能。在这篇背景故事中，教师、学生、校友和网络合作伙伴反思了他们在R3ISE的经历，这些经历在去年的年度研讨会上得到了强调。在本次研讨会上，诸如道德领导，将课堂理论转化为实践以及打击错误信息的策略等主题突出了R3ISE的持续努力并提出了进一步的方向。这些反思体现了R3ISE社区如何继续发展-在致力于卓越和责任的生物医学科学全球网络中培养科学诚信，弹性和同理心。

期刊介绍： Science has many big remaining questions. To address them, we will need to work collaboratively and across disciplines. The goal of iScience is to help fuel that type of interdisciplinary thinking. iScience is a new open-access journal from Cell Press that provides a platform for original research in the life, physical, and earth sciences. The primary criterion for publication in iScience is a significant contribution to a relevant field combined with robust results and underlying methodology. The advances appearing in iScience include both fundamental and applied investigations across this interdisciplinary range of topic areas. To support transparency in scientific investigation, we are happy to consider replication studies and papers that describe negative results. We know you want your work to be published quickly and to be widely visible within your community and beyond. With the strong international reputation of Cell Press behind it, publication in iScience will help your work garner the attention and recognition it merits. Like all Cell Press journals, iScience prioritizes rapid publication. Our editorial team pays special attention to high-quality author service and to efficient, clear-cut decisions based on the information available within the manuscript. iScience taps into the expertise across Cell Press journals and selected partners to inform our editorial decisions and help publish your science in a timely and seamless way.
