Some words of wisdom (bijak)
• Innovative application of older technologies is often “good
enough”

something

Ethics in publishing: Policies and ethics #2 (in

Elsevier)

Ethics topics to consider when publishing:
• Authorship of the paper: Authorship should be limited to those who have made a significant contribution to
the conception, design, execution, or interpretation of the reported study.
• Originality and plagiarism: The authors should ensure that they have written entirely original works, and if
the authors have used the work and/or words of others, that this has been appropriately cited or quoted.
• Data access and retention: Authors may be asked to provide the raw data in connection with a paper for
editorial review, and should be prepared to provide public access to such data.
• Multiple, redundant or concurrent publication: An author should not in general publish manuscripts
describing essentially the same research in more than one journal or primary publication. Elsevier does not
view the following uses of a work as prior publication: publication in the form of an abstract; publication as an
academic thesis; publication as an electronic preprint. Information on prior publication is included within each
Elsevier journal’s Guide for Authors. Note: Cell Press, The Lancet, and some society-owned titles have
different policies on prior publication. Information on these is available on the journal homepage.
• Acknowledgement of sources: Proper acknowledgment.
• Disclosure and conflicts of interest: All submissions must include disclosure of all relationships that could
be viewed as presenting a potential conflict of interest.
• Fundamental errors in published works: When an author discovers a significant error or inaccuracy in
his/her own published work, it is the author's obligation to promptly notify the journal editor or publisher and

cooperate with the editor to retract or correct the paper.
• Reporting standards: Authors of reports of original research should present an accurate account of the work
performed as well as an objective discussion of its significance.
• Hazards and human or animal subjects: Statements of compliance are required if the work involves
chemicals, procedures or equipment that have any unusual hazards inherent in their use, or if it involves the
use of animal or human subjects.
• Use of patient images or case details: Studies on patients or volunteers require ethics committee approval
and informed consent, which should be documented in the paper.

Is a title indexed in Scopus? A reminder to ch
eck before you publish
Here’s how to verify if a title is indexed in Scopus:
• Check our title lists. You don’t need access to Scopus to find out what is
and what is NOT covered, the information is publicly available from our info
page.There are 3 lists to check against:
- Scopus Source List: The complete list of indexed journal titles
- Book Title List: The complete list of indexed book titles
- Scopus Discontinued Sources List: The list of journal titles for which
indexing has been discontinued (and as of which volume and issue)
• Find it in Scopus. You can also go to Scopus.com itself to check. Open the
“Sources” page and search for a title, publisher or ISSN.
• Ask! When in doubt, contact the Scopus Helpdesk and one of our Customer
Service representatives can let you know if a title is indexed (or is going to

be indexed).

The Nature journals
The Nature journals publish several different types of articles about science and medicine.
Broadly speaking, these can be divided into articles reporting original scientific research;
those reviewing scientific research; scientific journalism (news); opinion about sciencerelated matters; articles about science history; and articles about the interface of science
and culture.
• Original research is published either as an Article, Letter, Resource (presents a large
dataset of broad usefulness, interest and significance) Brief Communication or Technical
Report.
• Articles in the Nature journals that review recent advances in the scientific literature are
called Reviews. The Nature Reviews journals also publish Progress articles (highly
topical, short reviews). Nature publishes Insights (themed collections of several review
articles) and, occasionally, Analysis (meta-analysis of existing data). Some of the
Nature journals publish Perspectives and Historical Perspectives. Perspectives
discuss models and ideas from a personal but balanced viewpoint. They are intended to
stimulate discussion and new experimental approaches. All these articles (Reviews,
Progress, Analysis, Insights, Perspectives and Historical Perspectives) are peerreviewed. See each journal's guide to authors for further information.
• The Nature journals also publish News and Views: short, accessible articles focused on
one scientific advance independent of the author's own research.

• Unstructured
-

Paragraphs- few sentences summarizing each
section

A perspective, opinion, or commentary is based on ideas, opinions, and
insights, and hence does not follow a strict structure like the IMRaD.

Prepare the figures and tables
Write the Methods
Write up the Results
Write the Discussion
Finalize the Results and Discussion before writing the introduction. This
is because, if the discussion is insufficient, how can you objectively
demonstrate the scientific significance of your work in the introduction?

5. Write a clear Conclusion
6. Write a compelling introduction
7. Write the Abstract
8. Compose a concise and descriptive Title
9. Select Keywords for indexing
10. Write the Acknowledgements
11. Write up the References

Length of the manuscript
Look at the journal's Guide for Authors, but an ideal length for a
manuscript is 25 to 40 pages, double spaced, including essential data
only. Here are some general guidelines:
• Title: Short and informative
• Abstract: 1 paragraph (
