Policy
Purpose
Scientific and scholarly publications, including articles, abstracts, conference presentations, and grant proposals, are essential for sharing research and ideas with academic, professional, and public audiences. To advance knowledge, these works must be published with enough clarity and detail to allow others to understand, replicate, and build upon them.
For authors, publication supports academic recognition, funding opportunities, and career advancement. However, with these benefits come responsibilities: authors must ensure the integrity of their research through careful planning, execution, analysis, and reporting.
As members of the University of Health Sciences and Pharmacy in St. Louis, faculty, staff, and students share a commitment to upholding the principles of responsible authorship. This policy outlines the key expectations and best practices for ethical and accurate scholarly publication within our academic community.
Applies to Faculty, Staff, Fellows, Trainees, and Students affiliated with University of Health Sciences and Pharmacy in St. Louis.
