The Society of Medical Education & Research (SMER) is steadfast in its commitment to protecting the rights of authors while ensuring the responsible and ethical dissemination of scholarly work. Each of our journals operates under transparent policies regarding copyright ownership, licensing options—including Open Access where applicable—and user privileges for accessing, sharing, or reusing published materials.
We encourage all authors and readers to carefully review the Author Guidelines, as well as the Copyright & Licensing Information provided on each journal’s website, to gain a thorough understanding of submission procedures, publication rights, and the permissible uses of the content. By maintaining these standards, SMER seeks to uphold the integrity of the scientific record, support authors in sharing their research responsibly, and foster a global community of knowledge exchange and academic collaboration.
