Presented by Bill Yates, PhD, Vice Chancellor for Research Protections and Professor of Otolaryngology.

In today’s competitive funding environment, productivity is extremely important. However, the peer review process has been compromised by time constraints of researchers. This session discusses the problems that may occur during peer review of manuscripts (including ethical concerns), and the steps that authors can take to address these problems. The session is intended to provide insights into how an author can best guide their paper successfully through the peer review process. (subject matter: responsible authorship)
