Thank you so much, Tony.

It's a great honor to be here today, and huge thanks to everyone who is joining us today.

Before we even start, I want to say huge thanks to all of you, to all researchers out there who change our world for the better with science,

and scientific work and research are the things that bring humanity forward and help us advance.

So, thank you for your hard work and for your dedication.

Today's event is packed with amazing sessions full of practical tips and insights, focused on, how can you get your research work published?

We hope you're learning a lot today, and we hope you will take away helpful information from our session as well.

In this session, we are going to talk about research integrity.

A few words about your today�s speakers.

Tony, thanks for introducing us, just a few more words.

So I represent Turnitin.

My name is Yuliya.

Turnitin is a global company dedicated to ensuring the integrity of education and research.

Turnitin creates technological solutions to help researchers produce original work.

And, iThenticate is one of the products within the Turnitin family.

And today I'm accompanied by Serhii from iThenticate.

He's the product expert behind iThenticate and he is in charge of all the innovations that are happening with iThenticate products.

So let's jump into our presentation.

Today, we're going to cover why integrity is crucial to getting your work published.

We're going to speak about plagiarism.

We're going to define what plagiarism means and how it might occur, sometimes unintentionally.

And then we're going to speak about how you can ensure that your manuscript is free from potential plagiarism,

before you submit it to your target journal.

Then we will show you in the very end of our presentation,

we'll show you iThenticate similar to the report that is available for the Enago community and customers.

So, why integrity, why we're talking about integrity today?

Well, the thing is that integrity of your article, your manuscript is a very important factor that defines the success of your publication.

Basically, what happens is that when you submit your work to the target journal,

the publisher will actually check your submission for text similarity to identify whether your work contains potential plagiarism.

And the thing is that if certain text similarities are found in your submission, your chances of getting rejected are actually much higher.

So that's why it's so important to make sure that your work is free from citation mistake, is free from text similarity.

And of course, another thing to consider here is that being accused of plagiarism might actually compromise your reputation, right?

Because if a certain publisher will see the submission has some ___ plagiarized content,

that the publisher might not be so willing to actually work with you in the future.

The big takeaway here is that it's very important to actually make sure that your work is free from potential plagiarism,

before you submit it to the target journal.

Well, what is plagiarism?

You might think, you are a diligent, hardworking researcher.

You do original research.

You produce original writing, original articles.

You don't mean to plagiarize.

You never did. You never will.

Why we're even talking about it?

Well, the thing is that plagiarism is not as straightforward as it might seem.

The general notion of plagiarism means basically using somebody else�s work and presenting it as your own work.

However, it's not that simple.

How plagiarism might occur unintentionally.

Well, today we live in this digital-first environment where we are bombarded by informational messages,

and sometimes we simply might forget that we're using a certain source and we just forget about the source.

We just forget to give proper credit to the source, and this might lead to accidental plagiarism.

Another thing to keep in mind is that sometimes plagiarism might occur through coauthorship, right?

So, when you're working on an article in collaboration with other researchers who might be from a different country,

who might have a different background and you know, you might be very, very attentive to detail.

You might check all your sources.

You might make sure that your citations and references are properly and perfectly formatted.

However, you cannot be 100% sure that your coauthor will do the same.

That's why it's so important to actually check your co-created manuscript for text similarity, before you submit it to the publisher.

Because again, at the end of the day, your name is also on this publication.

Your name, might also be compromised if certain plagiarism accusations occur.

One last thing here, as we're talking about plagiarism and we are recognizing that it might happen unintentionally sometimes.

There are other things that you need to keep in mind when you are working on your article.

First, is that sometimes just the incorrect formatting of your citation might be considered as plagiarism by the publisher.

So you need to always make sure that you provide proper and complete information about your sources.

And then one last thing here, which is very interesting and very controversial, is self-plagiarism.

And you might think, Oh, well, how is it even possible, right?

What is wrong with using your own work again?

Well, the thing is that there is a certain practice when researchers are trying to submit their own work as a new work several times,

just to increase the amount of their publication.

And this might not be the most ethical thing to do.

Basically, the main thing to keep in mind here would be, it's okay to refer to your previous publications, it's okay to cite your own work.

But you have to do it properly and you have to actually be transparent and indicate that you are quoting to referencing your previous publication.

So again, when you are working on your new manuscript, you need to make sure that you are citing all your sources properly, including your own work.

So here, we are moving to the second part of our presentation,

as we all now understand how integrity and originality of your work is important for the success of your publication.

We're moving to the second part of this presentation where we are going to speak about a solution that researchers use,

to ensure that their content is free from potential plagiarism.

And here, we're very proud to speak about our partnership with Enago.

It's a strategic partnership between Enago and iThenticate since 2016.

Basically, there is a huge synergy between our companies, between our brands,

because Enago is a company committed to supporting the researcher community to helping researchers in getting their work published.

And iThenticate is one of the tools that researchers can use to publish with confidence, to ensure that their work is free from plagiarism.

Basically, when you are working with Enago, when you're using Enago services, you can also select the plagiarism check and service via Enago.

And Enago team will use iThenticate to actually scan your submission for text similarity.

It's a very straightforward, very simple and very quick process.

And as an outcome, you will get a PDF report,

where areas of potential plagiarism where areas with text similarity will be very clearly highlighted for you,

and you will be able to take appropriate action on these areas that require some review and additional work.

So, here is how iThenticate looks.

It's very, very straightforward, very simple, but very powerful tool,

which identifies and highlights the similarities in your work and provides you information about each source that is highlighted.

So how it actually works, iThenticate is powered by a huge content database and iThenticate compares your submission to premium academic content,

which includes premium scholarly journals, books, patents, conference proceedings and a huge database of web content.

So, when you submit to your work, iThenticate compares it to literally everything that's ever been created and written in your niche,

so you can make sure that if there is any text similarity, it will be always identified and highlighted by iThenticate.

We are very proud to speak about the top publishers that are actually partnering with iThenticate.

That's what makes the iThenticate content database absolutely unique and makes it so helpful for the researchers,

because researchers can make sure that the publications from the top scientific publishers are included in the iThenticate database.

And another thing to keep in mind here is that through these partnerships with these top publishers,

these publishers actually, most of them, would also use iThenticate to check your work or check similarities.

So when you submit your article to a certain publisher, it's very, very likely that they're also using iThenticate to check your work.

So if you just use it before you submit the article to the publisher,

you can make sure that the publisher will accept your work as it's already checked by iThenticate.

And one last thing here from me is that iThenticate is constantly working on actually increasing our database of content.

And we are working on getting the latest publications from all subjects or disciplines, all areas.

So, you know, if you are working on a research in a certain niche, you can be confident that again,

your work will be compared to all other publications that already exist in your particular disciplines.

So that's probably everything that I wanted to share today.

And now I'm going to pass it over to Serhii,

who will tell you a bit more about how iThenticate looks and works, and maybe he will share some product insights with us today.

Yeah.

Thank you, Yuliya.

Thank you everyone for joining our session.

Yeah, iThenticate report is not something like rocket that we are going to send to the Mars, but it's really straightforward.

And the main goal of our Similarity Report when we check every manuscript and every paper across billions of internet pages,

articles, manuscript dissertations, we represent and present results in Similarity Report,

where our authors really could check all of the matches, all of the sources, easily identify them,

check them and our main goal to actually provide ease of use interface to do it and highlight all the matches and show the results.

For the last year, we are working hard on new version of iThenticate.

We are working towards one goal and actually we do support the Enago�s vision, author�s first and quality first.

That's why we are working on a syndicate to remove false positives, and we're working towards detecting and excluding citations, different styles.

Right now, we support ___ styles.

And as well, we are working to exclude and detect preprint sources to remove them as well from the Similarity Report.

And for example, also, we received a lot of feedback from our authors about excluding also some sections of manuscripts,

because they don't want to check them for potential similarities, potential ___ and they want to remove false positives.

And our goal is to show in Similarity Report only the matches and items as it should be reviewed by authors.

We want to save time of our researchers on reviewing these results,

and keep only critical items that should be reviewed and remove all of the noise or and then like some common matches in Similarity Report,

and make it clear and understandable from a couple of minutes spending on reviewing the result of similarity check.

Yeah, thank you.

All right.

So, I think that's almost everything that we wanted to share with you today.

I hope that you basically you understood how the integrity of your research actually impacts the success of your particular publication,

and the success of your future career and how it affects your reputation.

So I would say the biggest takeaway here is we recommend everyone to always be on the safe side.

And if you are 100% confident that you are writing original work,

it is still important to make sure that you run a pre-check before you submit it to the publisher to avoid any frustration,

and increase the chances of your work getting published.

So one last thing here is that maybe some of you are actually already familiar with iThenticate,

or maybe you are only planning to start using it with Enago.

So we're sharing our contact information here on this slide, and we encourage you to actually share your feedback with us.

If you have anything you want to share with us, good story, bad story, suggestions, questions, you are very, very welcome.

And we would love to share your stories with the broader researcher community.

So well, that's it from us for today.

Thank you so much Enago for having us and thanks for everybody who is joining us today.

It's a great honor and a great pleasure to be here.

Thank you very much, Yuliya, and thank you very much, Serhii, your presentation was extremely informative.

I'm sure many of our audience are already using iThenticate and it has helped them in the preparation of their research content.

But equally, there are lots of researchers here who are preparing papers for the first time.

I'm sure they�ll find knowing about how they can access the service is very, very useful.

Can I remind delegates that if you have any questions to Serhii and for Yuliya,

as well as contacting them directly on the details you've just been shown, please feel free to send your questions in the Q&A box on this page.

And we will publish the responses in the official conference report later this year.

Again, can I remind delegates to visit the sponsors and exhibitors at their booths,

and please come back to the next session of #SeeTheFuture which will be starting shortly.

Thanks, guys. See you soon.
