About CSH Perspectives in Medicine

Cold Spring Harbor Perspectives in Medicine is a monthly online publication comprising reviews on different aspects of a variety of diseases, covering everything from the molecular and cellular bases of disease to translational medicine and new therapeutic strategies. The contributions are written by experts in each field and commissioned as Subject Collections by a board of eminent scientists and physicians, all of whom are acknowledged to be key figures in their particular fields. These Subject Collections gradually accumulate articles as new issues of the journal are published and, when complete, each represents a comprehensive survey of the field it covers. Cold Spring Harbor Perspectives in Medicine is thus unmatched in its depth of coverage and represents an essential source where readers can find informed surveys and critical discussion of advances in molecular medicine.

Examples would be funding for a research program or employment by, or stocks or shares in, one or more organizations that may be financially affected by the publication of a paper, as well as patents or patent applications whose value may be affected by the publication of the paper.

Protection of Human Subjects and Animals in Research Where data from experiments involving animals or human subjects are shown, authors must demonstrate that these were in accordance with the ethical standards of the relevant institutional and national committees for such matters.

Informed Consent Where identifying information, such as patients' names, initials, or hospital numbers, is shown, authors must demonstrate that the patient (or parent or guardian) has given written informed consent for publication and been shown the manuscript prior to publication.

Attribution and Plagiarism Authors are asked to ensure that previously published work is appropriately acknowledged and cited correctly. Where statements made in previously published work are reproduced verbatim, this must be indicated by the use of quotation marks (""), and an accompanying reference must be provided. Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory Press reserves the right to employ automated tools to identify any instances of plagiarism and withdraw contributions if this is detected.
