In addition, this year, the DFG/Leopoldina Recommendations on Scientific Freedom and Scientific Responsibility were discussed in interaction with PTB’s ethics committee under the aspect of the “dual use problem” when handling securityrelevant research (i.e., the danger that research findings might be misused for malicious purposes). Furthermore, within the quality management system, measures and structures were declared binding which are devised to minimize the risk of misuse of research results.
