What are some of the characteristics traits ethics and value systems a good scientist must have?

Answer 1

I think there are many character traits and habits that would make a good epidemiologist. I think the most important thing for epidemiologist would be for them to have to really know about all different types of diseases. I think that they have to be smart about the diseases. They have to know how the diseases spread and how they got it. I think epidemiologists should have some good habits too. I think they should be things like working with diseases. If they are working on a project, then I think whenever they have some extra time, they should work on their project so that they get it done faster. I think another habit they should have is reading. If they read more, then they could learn more vocabulary and more about what they are working on depending on the book they read. - I wasn't going to answer this but my own sense of ethics requires it! So, at the risk of controversy, no one, scientist or not, can compromise truth, even religious truth as they know it, without compromising their own person integrity or ethics. Truth is truth.
