Catalyst Editorial provides research integrity consultancy services, research and publication skills training to the reseach sector, and editorial support services to scholarly publishers.
Independent experts who champion integrity
Our work supports research integrity, and responsible research practice and research reporting to ensure that everyone can have confidence and trust in the way that research is conducted and reported, from the research community and research funders, to scholarly publishers, to the public and other stakeholders.
Trusted, expert, professional
We’ve built trusted, long-lasting professional relationships across the research sector and are experienced experts trusted by our clients. We will work closely with you to develop and deliver training programmes tailored to meet your organisation’s needs. You can expect us to understand your academic discipline, to collaborate with you to develop training programmes, and to work with precision, integrity and care, and according to best practice.
Catalyst for change
We advocate for a more equitable, inclusive research environment that recognises and rewards researchers fairly, that embraces good research practice, integrity, equity and diversity, and that supports responsible research and innovation, and the reporting of high-quality, trustworthy research outcomes. To achieve this, we take a lead on addressing key issues across the research and publishing sectors: to improve research practice and reporting, to ensure that research is conducted rigorously and responsibly, to improve the evaluation of researchers, and to work with the community to strengthen research and publication-associated skills. We work independently and in partnership with others, across the research sector. Catalyst Editorial director, Dr Jane Alfred, is a member of the UK Committee on Research Integrity.
