Research Ethics

Galaxy Publication and its journals are committed to promoting ethical research conduct and ensuring that published studies comply with internationally recognized ethical and regulatory standards.

Research involving human participants must be conducted in accordance with the principles of the Declaration of Helsinki and must receive approval from an appropriate ethics committee or institutional review board where required. Authors are expected to confirm that informed consent has been obtained and that participant privacy and confidentiality are protected.

Research involving animals must comply with relevant institutional, national, and international ethical guidelines and demonstrate appropriate measures to ensure animal welfare and responsible research conduct.

Authors are expected to conduct and report research honestly, transparently, and responsibly. Fabrication, falsification, plagiarism, inappropriate data manipulation, and other forms of research misconduct are not acceptable.

Authors must disclose relevant conflicts of interest and ensure accurate reporting of methods, results, and contributions. Responsible data management and appropriate data protection practices are expected to support research integrity and transparency.

Where concerns regarding research ethics or misconduct arise, journals may undertake editorial investigation and implement appropriate actions in accordance with journal policies and recognized publication ethics standards, including manuscript rejection, publication of corrections, or article retraction where necessary.

Galaxy Publication supports responsible and ethical research dissemination and periodically reviews its policies to strengthen research integrity and public trust in scholarly communication.
