funder disclosure

Funder disclosure is when organizations or researchers openly identify who provided financial support for a project or study. This transparency helps others understand potential influences or biases and assess the credibility of the work. Disclosing funders promotes honesty and accountability, ensuring that readers know if an external organization, government, or company financially contributed. It’s a standard practice in research and publishing to maintain trust and integrity, letting the audience evaluate the potential for vested interests affecting the outcomes or conclusions presented.
