Abstract
This paper presents an inductive ethnographic study conducted in a Belgian cancer research lab to explore how researchers make decisions and rationalize their scientific practices. The study reveals significant knowledge gaps compromising research ethics, particularly concerning the validity of lab machines and consumables from external providers. Scientists heavily rely on these without questioning their reliability, jeopardizing research integrity, responsible conduct, and responsible resource use.
