Publication Ethics

Publication Ethics

This conference adheres to the COPE Core Practices and the principles of the World Association of Medical Editors (WAME) where applicable.

Authorship

• Authorship is restricted to those who made substantial contributions to conception, design, analysis, drafting or critical revision of the work.
• All authors must approve the final version.
• Acquisition of funding, data collection alone, or general supervision do not qualify for authorship.
• Changes to the author list after submission require written consent of all authors and editor approval.

Originality and prior publication

• Submitted work must be original and unpublished.
• Simultaneous submission to multiple venues is prohibited.
• Conference presentation prior to journal submission is acceptable if disclosed.

Research ethics

• Studies involving human subjects must conform to the Declaration of Helsinki.
• Animal studies must follow institutional ethical guidelines.
• Informed consent statements must be included where applicable.

Data integrity

Authors must preserve raw data for at least five years after publication and make it available on reasonable request from editors, reviewers or readers.

Editor and reviewer ethics

• Editorial decisions are based on academic merit alone — not on race, gender, sexual orientation, religious or political beliefs.
• Editors recuse themselves from manuscripts where conflicts of interest exist.
• Reviewers maintain confidentiality and decline assignments where conflicts arise.
