The principal researcher (also known as the principal investigator) holds the ultimate responsibility for ensuring the ethical conduct of research. This includes obtaining informed consent, protecting participants, ensuring confidentiality, and following ethical and legal guidelines. While others may play supporting roles, it is the principal researcher who is accountable for all aspects of research ethics.
