Dear All, A and B belong to 2 different institutes. A claimed B has used his pdb for a publication in Journal C. Journal C did not give the retraction, but permit complain related to the journal publication author issue, with the prerequisite journal C did not have the authority on authorship dispute. Then A has e-mailed to the institute head of B with academic misconduct by B as claim, the institute head of B did not give reply.
In this situation, can A have the journal authorship dispute settled by a neutral reviewer (Journal C view: you (A) need to reach out to the institutions that have authority to adjudicate on such matters, as investigation and adjudication on authorship claims falls outside the remit of journal editors. )? Who are qualified as the neutral reviewer so that the review decision can be submitted to Journal C? If you believe you are qualified, or you know somebody or some organization qualified, please let me know and I will introduce the issue to you by separate e-mail (it is best not disseminated, am I right?) Best regards.
