== Research Director == | |||
1. The Research Director should ensure that research is being done. | |||
2. All research rewards unlocked by the Science department should be approved by the Research Director. | |||
3. The Research Director is permitted to change the station AI's lawset, according to the [[Command SOP#AI|Command SOP]]. | |||
4. The Research Director is to be held accountable alongside the responsible science personnel for any accidents that harm crew members. | |||
== Scientist == | |||
1. Scientists report directly to the Research Director. | |||
2. Scientists should follow basic safety protocols when performing research, such as: wearing internals for gas release, wearing a bomb suit for potential explosions, hazardous material containment. | |||
3. Scientists should communicate any potential hazards to the crew, such as: anomaly generation, potential explosions, loose artifacts, and other hazards. | |||
4. Scientists should instruct any Research assistants near them, and are responsible for their safety. | |||
5. Research Assistants should be utilized for dangerous experiments, and should be brought to the medical bay if injured. | |||
== Research Assistant == | |||
1. Research Assistants report directly to the Research Director. | |||
2. Research Assistants report to the nearest scientist, after the Research Director | |||
3. Research Assistants should complete any especially hazardous tasks, at the direction of a Scientist. | |||
== Roboticist == | |||
1. Roboticists report directly to the Research Director. | |||
2. Roboticists must obtain permission from the Hos or Captain, and the Research Director, before any combat oriented mechs or cyborgs can be created. | |||
3. Roboticists should prioritize having an empty cyborg chassis at all times, in case of unplanned MMI insertion. | |||
4. Roboticists must have an appropriately stamped and signed "Cyborg Conversion Form" before transferring a crew member into a cyborg. | |||
5. Roboticists, at the direction of the Captain, HoS, or Research Director, may omit this form for prisoners, or bloated corpses. | |||

=== Documentation & Paperwork === | |||
The following forms should be available for use within Science: | |||
* '''Anomaly Research Log''' – records of generated anomalies, their status, and containment. | |||
* '''Artifact Test Record''' – expected and observed effects of artifact activation. | |||
* '''Cyborg Chassis Transfer Record''' – Documentation of chassis transfer, reasoning, prior and future chassis name. | |||
* '''Cyborg Conversion Form''' – Records individual to be converted, the new chassis, authorization, and reasoning. | |||
* '''Cyborg/AI Conversion Consent Form''' – Records explicit consent by crew member to be converted into a cyborg. | |||
* '''Item Request Form''' – documentation of upgrades, distributed boards, and recipients. | |||
* '''Anomalous Host Consent Form''' – written informed consent for crew hosting anomalies. | |||
All forms should be filed promptly in departmental records and made available for review by the RD, Command, or Internal Affairs. | |||
