The REMCB ensures academic integrity and ethics in scientific production as a basic principle throughout all stages of the research process: from the initial conception to the final publication and dissemination. This document aims to compile the essential ethical practices for a quality scientific publication, useful for the various parties involved within and outside the editorial process (authors, reviewers, editors, associations, sponsors, and funding sources).

The REMCB accepts and adheres to the principles of the Committee on Publication Ethics (COPE) (https://publicationethics.org/core-practices), a non-profit organization whose objective is to support researchers in achieving ethical, integral, and responsible publication
