The IYRC in the News

Plagiarism

The IYRC has zero tolerance for plagiarism / academic dishonesty. Those who are found to be in violation of the IYRC's policies for publishing will be removed from the conference and have their paper retracted.
We aim to foster academic growth, not jeopardize early careers. It is rare for us to receive a plagiarized paper that passes pre-screening and peer review, and thus must be retracted after publication. We are open to share the list of retracted published papers due to plagiarism by request.
