Abstract

High-profile studies conducted in Global South (GS) countries with few, or no GS authors are published frequently, underrepresenting GS researchers in local high-impact publications. Here, we reiterate the importance of conducting equitable research, valuing GS researchers as equal contributors, and propose pathways to decolonize science.
