👇Full, transparent reporting of research studies is essential.For those working in pharmacogenetics/pharmacogenomics our reporting guidelines, STROPS, will help you do just this. Available on equator network database @EQUATORnetwork and here journals.plos.org/plosmedici…. @LivStatGen

STrengthening the Reporting Of Pharmacogenetic Studies: Development of the STROPS guideline

Marty Chaplin and co-authors recount the development of a guideline for reporting pharmacogenetic studies.

We've collated many reporting guidelines for various study designs, some of the main ones are listed below. But search our database for reporting guidelines for other study designs. Good reporting is part of responsible research. equator-network.org #researchintegrity
