ICMJE Recommendations

The International Committee of Medical Journal Editors (ICMJE) developed recommendations to review best practice and ethical standards in the conduct and reporting of research and other material published in medical journals, and to help authors, editors and others involved in peer review and biomedical publishing create and distribute accurate, clear, reproducible, unbiased medical journal articles. The recommendations may also provide useful insights into the medical editing and publishing process for the media, patients and their families, and general readers.

Ohio State Authorship Guidelines

Assigning authorship on a scientific or scholarly manuscript or creative expression performs a dual role. It apportions credit for the contribution of each individual while also explicitly assigning responsibility. Designated authorship allows others to assess the relative input of each author to the impact of an intellectual endeavor, including original scientific research, words and images, and works of art, music or dance. These scientific or scholarly manuscripts or creative expressions might be intended to disseminate innovations, discoveries or novel ideas, review existing work, or solely for educational purposes. Authorship roles are used as important metrics in establishing renown, advancing academic standing, and facilitating grant funding of individuals.

In addition, research utilizing CTSI support must cite the CTSI Grant.
