Ethical aspects in medical publishing in Belgium.Price: €10,00 |
|
Medical publishing has become a pivotal aspect of all stages of
career development in medicine in Belgium. Publication pressure
is therefore present from the stage of the medical student to the
level of the head of an academic medical service. This pressure
represents a real danger to commit scientific misconduct, ranging
from minor missteps to severe fraud. Recent surveys have shown
that scientific misconduct and publication fraud represent an
important problem in medical publishing, more than in other
scientific fields, also in Belgium. Several factors may explain the
increased risk of scientific misconduct in medical publishing.
Recent national and international initiatives have emerged in order
to better understand the problem of scientific misconduct and to
optimize ethics in medical publishing. They aim to increase integrity
and transparency at all levels of medical research and publishing,
starting at the beginning of a career in medical school. The current
review describes the ethical difficulties in medical publishing in
Belgium, and offers possible solutions. (Acta Gastroenterol. belg., 2018, 81, 45-48). [Product Details...] |
