NASA and U.S. Government policies address research and personal misconduct, and provide avenues for reporting potential violations.
Any individual comfortable doing so is encouraged to contact the panel/solicitation program official directly. When a NASA individual responsible for reviews receives allegations of misconduct, etc. from a reviewer/panel, they must notify the NASA Office of Inspector General (OIG) immediately. All individuals are encouraged to read the NASA websites, which include information on reporting options outside of the NASA programs.
Anyone engaged in or observing any aspect of NASA-supported research activities (from peer review to the final publication of results), including a non-NASA individual, may make a misconduct allegation directly to the Office of Inspector General (OIG) by phone at 1-800-424-9183 or online at: https://oigforms.nasa.gov/wp_cyberhotline.html.
