Presentation: Ethics of Authorship in Medical Research

We are sharing a presentation by Professor Clara Ladi Ejembi on the Ethics of Authorship in Medical Research. This resource highlights:

• Authorship Criteria: ICMJE (strict), McNutt et al. (moderate), COPE (broad/minimum).

• Ethical Principles: Transparency, accountability, fairness, and collaboration.

• Unethical Practices: Gift, coercive, ghost authorship, authorship for sale, and undisclosed assistance.

• AI in Research: AI can assist with drafting but cannot be listed as an author.

• Shared Accountability: Authors, journals, institutions, and funders must collectively uphold research integrity.

Enhance your understanding of ethical standards in medical research and ensure your publications reflect honesty, fairness, and accountability.
