These may include research funding, employment, consultancy, industrial partnerships, or other relevant relationships.

Reviewers

Reviewers must inform the editor of any potential conflicts of interest involving the authors, institutions, or manuscripts under review. Reviewers should decline review assignments when such conflicts may compromise their objectivity.

Editors

Editors must ensure fair and impartial editorial decisions. Editors with potential conflicts of interest must withdraw from handling the relevant manuscripts and assign editorial responsibilities to another qualified editor.

Submissions from Editorial Board Members

Management of Conflicts of Interest
