Communicating with Journal Editors and Publishers Regarding Research Misconduct

Communication between journals, publishers, and institutions on questions of research misconduct is often lacking due to several reasons, including the speed with which journals seek to resolve these questions and institutional hesitancy to breach the confidentiality of an investigation into research misconduct. Representatives of academic journals, journal publishers, and institutions gained an appreciation for how the other parties manage questions of research misconduct and identified strategies to facilitate increased collaboration and communication between journals and institutions.
