|
| :::: Anyone who has contributed to the study or manuscript, but does not meet the criteria for authorship should be listed in the 'Acknowledgments'. Permission to include the name and affiliation those mentioned in the Acknowledgments section must be obtained. | | :::: <big>Visit the the Bioenergetics Communications website for » [https://www.bioenergetics-communications.org/index.php/bec/BECPolicies '''Journal policies''' ]</big> |

| |
| == Journal policies on conflicts of interest / competing interests ==

| |
| :::::* Individuals, their funding organization or employer holding (or applying for) related patents;

| |
| :::::* Political, religious, or ideological competing interests.

| == Journal policies on data sharing and reproducibility ==
| |
| :::: Bioenergetics Communications support the FAIR principles of Findable, Accessible, Interoperable and Reusable ([https://www.go-fair.org/fair-principles/ FAIR Principles]).
| |
| :::: All articles in Bioenergetics Communications that report original results should include the raw data underlying the results, together with details of any software used to process the results. It is essential that others can see the raw data to be able to replicate the study and analyze the data, as well as in some circumstances, reuse it. Failure to provide access to the raw data for publication without good justification is likely to result in the article being rejected.
| |
| :::: All articles must include a Data Availability statement at the end of the manuscript, even where no data is associated with or has been included in the article.
| |
|
| |
| :::: Where possible, data should be deposited in a stable and recognized open repository under a CC0 license prior to manuscript submission. Please check that the DOI(s) and/or accession number(s) provided are publicly available. Data should be submitted to discipline-specific, community-recognized repositories, or to generalist repositories if no suitable community resource is available. Possible generalist repositories are listed below. These repositories have their own policies and may be subject to file size limits and/or fees.

| |
| :::: We recognize that there may be cases where openly sharing data may not be feasible (because ofdue to ethical or security considerations, or data protection issues). If you think that this applies to your article, please let the editorial team know indicate this at the submission stage., as we have policies in place to allow the publication of papers associated with such data, whilst maintaining the appropriate level of security.
| |
| :::: Exceptions may be made for:
| |
| ::::: Ethical and security considerations
| |
| :::::: If data access is restricted for ethical or security reasons, the manuscript must include:
| |
| ::::::* a description of the restrictions on the data; and
| |
| ::::::* all necessary information required for a reader or reviewer to apply for access to the data and the conditions under which access will be granted.
| |
| ::::: Data protection issues
| |
| :::::: Where human data cannot be effectively de-identified, data must not be shared in order to protect patient/participant privacy unless the individuals have given explicit written consent that their identifiable data can be made publicly available.
| |
| :::::: In instances where the data cannot be made available, the manuscript must include:
| |
| ::::::* an explanation of the data protection concern;
| |
| ::::::* any intermediary data that can be de-identified without compromising anonymity;
| |
| ::::::* what, if anything, the relevant Institutional Review Board (IRB) or equivalent said about data sharing; and,
| |
| ::::::* where applicable, all necessary information required for a reader or reviewer to apply for access to the data and the conditions under which access will be granted.
| |
| ::::: Large data
| |
| :::::: It is not always feasible to share large data sets. In these cases, authors should include a description of the data, including the file types and sizes, when submitting their manuscript. The editorial team can then advise on hosting.
| |
| :::::: Where data is too large to be feasibly hosted by a recommended repository, the manuscript should include:
| |
| ::::::* any intermediary data that can be easily shared; and
| |
| ::::::* all necessary information required for a reader or reviewer to access the data alongside a description of this process.
| |
| ::::: Data under license by a third party
| |
| :::::: In cases where data has been obtained from a third party and restrictions apply to the availability of the data, the manuscript must include:
| |
| ::::::* all necessary information required for a reader or reviewer to access the data by the same means as the authors;
| |
| ::::::* any intermediary data that can be shared legally; and
| |
