Authorship

Authorship and imprint model

Real doctors, researchers, editors and qualified subject experts are named as authors or editors. Sterling IMRES is the institutional affiliation and Sterling IMRES Press the publisher. Sterling IMRES is used as a corporate author mainly for official reports, standards, consensus documents and evidence summaries. Contributors need not be physicians — respiratory therapists, nurses, pharmacists, biomedical scientists, statisticians, illustrators, methodologists and medical editors all contribute where qualified, and clinically sensitive material receives clinical review.
