Masthead

Who is responsible for what. The Journal publishes its masthead in full because accountability requires a name, and because a reader with a complaint should know exactly whose desk it lands on.

Revised quarterly · full contributor pages · standards

Editorial

  • Fact CheckerWren Kealoha. Analytical and laboratory claims: chromatograms against the stated method, mass differences against the claimed modification, arithmetic against its units.

Declarations

Nobody who writes for the Journal accepts speaking fees, consultancy, honoraria, travel or equity from a pharmaceutical manufacturer, a compounding pharmacy, a testing laboratory or a research-chemical vendor. Where a contributor has a prior relationship with an organisation we cover, it is stated on their contributor page and in the piece.

The Journal pays its own congress registration and travel and accepts no industry hospitality. Where a session or study we report was industry-supported, we say so in the piece. No contributor holds equity in any organisation named in these pages, and no contributor is remunerated by volume, traffic or engagement.

Where to send what

  • Letters for publication, including disagreements — letters@compoundjournal.com. Give a city; we verify it before printing.
  • Factual challenges, corrections, complaintsstandards@compoundjournal.com. Reaches the standards editor, not the writer.
  • Certificates of analysis for the document archive — the standards desk address above. We publish aggregates, not individual readers’ names.

We do not publish telephone numbers and we do not conduct correspondence over messaging apps. Everything is in writing, so that everything can be quoted accurately.
