Sage colleague named in second-annual People of Publishing campaign

Sage’s associate director of research integrity, Dr. Adya Misra, has been named in the Publishers Association’s second-annual People of Publishing cohort. She is one of eight thought leaders from across trade and academic publishing honored in this year’s campaign, which spotlights individuals driving industry change.

Announcing the winners, the Publishers Association said:

“Adya Misra has made a significant impact on Sage's research integrity work. She built and trained a global team responsible for upholding the quality and validity of Sage's journals, which is vitally important in this age of mis- and disinformation. She has implemented robust policies and procedures for handling ethical issues including plagiarism, data fabrication, authorship disputes and conflicts of interest. Adya's work strives to promote fair and transparent practices in scholarly publishing.

She has also contributed to important conversations on topics such as open science, peer review and research assessment. Beyond her work for Sage, Adya applies her extensive expertise as a thought-leader within the broader scholarly communications community.”

Congratulations to Adya. You can learn more about this year’s People of Publishing awards in an article in The Bookseller.
