Abstract

Team Science and Collaborative research are affected when main researchers see their contributions to a career-defining paper diminished in the author lists. Lab managers, publishers, and funders have tried to devise a fairer system of recognizing individual contributions to scholarly work. One suggestion is to establish a scientific team “pre-agreement”, or contract, specifying roles, responsibilities, and conflict resolution processes in advance [1]. “Researchers continue to be judged by what and where they publish,” says Liz Allen, Director of strategic initiatives at F1000, an open-access science publisher. ”It’s critical to their careers, so if they’re not getting the credit they deserve and visibility for their work, it’s a big problem for them.”
