Do they accept submissions from scientists with “competing viewpoints”? What do they do if the authors whose work they published “may have misled their readers”? Are they transparent about influence from “supporters, funders, advertisers & others”?
News of the letter to #NEJM was reported earlier by STAT, a health news outlet.
#EdMartin also asked about the role of the #NIH, which funds some of the #research the journals publish, & the agency’s role “in the development of submitted articles.”
