Author Affiliation
Authors must accurately list both their current institutional affiliation and the affiliation where the majority of their research was conducted. It is advisable to designate as the primary affiliation the institution where the research received substantial support, although authors should verify this against any institutional contractual agreements.
Ensuring the correctness of author names and affiliations is crucial. Errors in this information can result in improper attribution or citation, potentially affecting promotional prospects or funding opportunities. Please note that changes or corrections to an author's address or institutional affiliation are generally not allowed after an article has been published.
