Ethical issues in publication are a global challenge. The increasing number of scientific journals in biomedicine and published papers has not always been matched by increased quality in publishing due to lack of information and education of the scientific community, especially of the young scientists, about ethical principles in research and publishing. Often there is lack of understanding on the part of authors, reviewers, editors and publishers about the different requirements and issues. Furthermore, the practices vary between publishing houses and geographies. In addition, particularly in the last decade, some unethical behavior, fraud and attempts by experts for increasing their scientific productivity in research and publishing their results in scientific journals have been reported. Through three recognized lecturers who will explain the concerns and challenges from their own experiences, this webinar offers to bring in the perspectives for ethical issues from the points of views of an author, an editor, and a publisher. Each speaker will provide the ethical standards for publishing and talk about particular concerns from the viewpoints from different roles.

This webinar comprises of three following presentations of 20 min each followed by 20 min of panel discussion at the end.
