The editor of the journal Neuropsychopharmacology is stepping down following a flap over the medical journal's failure to disclose that the authors of a paper reviewing a new treatment for depression had financial ties to the treatment's developer.
One of the authors of the article was the editor himself, Charles B.Nemeroff, who is the chairman of the Department of Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences at Emory University in Atlanta.
In an email Friday, the owner of the medical journal said Dr. Nemeroff had decided to step down as editor. They said his decision was "in part, based on the recent adverse publicity to the journal."
