Online Lecture: “Conflict-Free Authorship

The KPI Library invites researchers from Igor Sikorsky KPI and anyone interested to join the online lecture “Conflict-Free Authorship,” which will take place as part of the open lecture series “Academic Integrity: Rules of the Game or a Matter of Honor.”

The issue of authorship in scientific publications often leads to misunderstandings and conflicts. Who has the right to be a co-author? How can each researcher’s contribution be fairly assessed? And how can disputes be avoided even before the article is submitted?

Key aspects:

• who can be considered an author of a scientific publication;
• what international criteria exist for determining authorship;
• what roles and contributions qualify for co-authorship;
• how authorship differs from acknowledgments;
• how to avoid “honorary” and “ghost” authorship;
• how to properly agree on the order of authors in an article;
• what practices help prevent conflicts within a team.

Speaker: Sofia Zherebchuk, Chief Librarian and Coordinator of the Research Data Management Department at the KPI Library.
