MTN provides guidelines and procedures to ensure that all scientific publications that report on MTN research meet top scientific criteria and standards. All publications must be reviewed and/or approved by the protocol publication committee, sponsor, and the Manuscript Review Committee (MRC) before being submitted for publication or presentation.
The overall MTN Publication Development and Review Process is shown in the scheme below and described in detail in the MTN Manual of Operational Procedures, Section 20, Network Publication Policy.
