Particularly relevant to genomics and refers to authorship on the main ENCODE paper
QT:”
Biagioli agrees that delineating each person’s contribution should help, but he says that the descriptions are frequently too brief. As an example, he cites the study published this month in Nature by the ENCODE Project Consortium [the ENCODE “main paper”] . It ascribes generic tasks such as “data analysis”, “writing” or “scientific management” to large sets of authors, making it impossible to tell, for example, who analysed which data.
