In thinking about science ethics, we should bear in mind that the most important thing is to do science – and do good science. That is the root of everything. We should learn about ethics and make it a part of our thinking, but not let it get in the way. We don't want to be endlessly saying no, you can't do that and you must worry about this – rather we should integrate ethics smoothly into routine practice. We can think about scientific integrity on three levels: personal integrity, collective integrity and institutional integrity.
