Ethical Treatment of Subjects
The Eurasian Journal of Science and Engineering (EAJSE) requires that all research involving human or animal subjects adheres to the highest ethical standards. For studies involving human participants, informed consent must be obtained, ensuring that participants understand the nature, purpose, and potential risks of the study. Research involving animals must follow established ethical guidelines to ensure their humane and respectful treatment.
