Academics are required by their university employers both to raise research funding and to publish research findings, but conditions imposed by research funders may conflict with the requirements of research publishers. These conflicts create risks, with potentially severe consequences, that differ between research fields and funders, and must be navigated by individual academics. I propose that universities report cases of conflict, including causes and resolutions, to national registries accessible to all research organisations. These could serve both as a warning to grant applicants, and a deterrent to future interference by funders.
学术界人士既要为其大学雇主筹集研究资金，又要发表研究成果，但研究资金提供者施加的条件可能与研究出版者的要求相冲突。这些冲突在不同的研究领域和资金提供者之间存在风险，可能会产生严重的后果，需要由个人学者来应对。我建议大学向所有研究机构都可访问的国家登记处报告冲突案例，包括冲突的原因和解决方案。这既可以警告拨款申请人，也可以阻止资金提供者未来的干预。
