Author Duties

Author duties at CTAD

Studies should present an accurate account of the work performed as well as an objective discussion of its significance. Underlying data should be represented accurately in the poster presentation or oral communication. The poster or oral presentation should contain sufficient detail and references to permit others to replicate the work. Fraudulent or knowingly inaccurate statements constitute unethical behavior and are unacceptable. 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. Authors should not submit poster or oral communications describing essentially the same research or previously presented or published  elsewhere (whether in print or online). Proper acknowledgment of the work of others must always be given. Authors should cite publications that have been influential in determining the nature of the reported work. Authorship should be limited to those who have made a significant contribution to the conception, design, execution, or interpretation of the reported study. All those who have made significant contributions should be listed as co-authors. Where there are others who have participated in certain substantive aspects of the research project, they should be acknowledged or listed as contributors. The corresponding author should ensure that all appropriate co-authors and no inappropriate co-authors are included , and that all co-authors have seen and approved the final version of the abstract and have agreed to its submission to the CTAD Congress and publication in the JPAD. All authors should disclose in their abstract any financial or other substantive conflict of interest that might be construed to influence the results or interpretation of their presentation. All sources of financial support for the project should be disclosed. When an author discovers a significant error or inaccuracy in his/her own  work, it is the author’s obligation to promptly notify the CTAD & JPAD scientific committee and cooperate with to retract or correct the abstract or digital poster and oral communication. Authors are the only responsible for their  abstract, oral and poster presentation; CTAD Congress and JPAD publisher cannot be responsible 

It is reminded that the papers presented during the Congress, whatever their form (oral, written or poster) are placed under the sole responsibility of their authors and co-authors. In no case, the positions, research, results presented during the CTAD Congress & JPAD Publisher are likely to engage the responsibility of the Congress

CTAD Congress and JPAD publishers

• Do not assume any responsibility for the content of the posters or presentations, which are selected according to a grid of objective criteria, elaborated by a committee of renowned experts, who leave the authors the full responsibility for their content.
• Do not make any judgement on the legal or even more, judicial plans, which exceed our competences and do not wish to enter into any exchange on this plan. 
• Do act as a scientific "platform" and therefore, are very careful about neutrality and objectivity.
• Do not cope with any cause and do not wish to give any echo to polemics that do not concern them
