Research Integrity #TRANSPARENCY Stories of Learning from Overcoming Mass Retractions, Systematic Manipulation and Research Misconduct

With research output rapidly growing and the increased pressure to publish more and do it faster, no publisher or society has been spared when it comes to research integrity and publishing ethics problems. While it is tempting to hide these challenges in the shadows, we propose an open discussion of what's gone wrong, what we did to overcome and learn, and how we can do better going forward. By sharing our stories and collective experiences, we can better support industry-wide efforts with a broader community of practice across publishers, societies, authors, and editors.

"Transformation, Trust, and Transparency" The pace of change in our industry continues unabated, with seismic shifts in areas such as the dissemination of research, business models, and the nature of the workplace. And yet, while pressure for change has become the new normal, fundamental change has proved more elusive. We invite you to join us in highlighting the Trust and Transparency issues that underlie many of the challenges we face and exploring what it takes to create more meaningful Transformation in scholarly publishing.
