Author Ethics

The Journal of Integrative Bioscience Research (JIBR) expects all authors to adhere to the highest standards of research integrity and publication ethics.

Authors must:

• Submit original and unpublished work.
• Ensure the manuscript is not under consideration by another journal.
• Avoid plagiarism, data fabrication, and image manipulation.
• Accurately report research methods and findings.
• Properly acknowledge all sources and citations.
• Include only individuals who have made a significant contribution as authors.
• Obtain ethical approval for research involving humans or animals, where applicable.
• Disclose any conflicts of interest and funding sources.
• Cooperate with the editorial process and respond to reviewers' comments promptly.
• Notify the journal immediately if a significant error is discovered after publication.

Failure to comply with these ethical standards may result in manuscript rejection, retraction, or other appropriate editorial actions in accordance with the COPE (Committee on Publication Ethics) guidelines.
