Academic Integrity
Standard Operating Procedure for Research Labs: Protecting Multi-Author Manuscripts from Semantic Drift and Unattributed AI Edits
A multi-author manuscript can lose integrity long before it reaches a journal, since responsibility is distributed while accountability remains shared. This SOP gives corresponding authors, PIs, postdocs, and doctoral candidates a practical system: assign an owner to every claim, log AI-assisted edits, run DOI-grounded source review, and archive a highlighted PDF audit report before submission.
