A significant new initiative, the 'Trust Seal,' has been launched to bolster confidence in scientific research.
一項重大新倡議「信任印章」（Trust Seal）已經啟動，旨在增強對科學研究的信心。
Spearheaded by BioCore, a scholarly publishing consortium, this community-led project aims to establish a universal framework for recognizing research integrity.
這項由學術出版聯盟 BioCore 領頭的社區主導計畫，目的在於建立一套通用的研究誠信認證架構。
In an era where concerns about scientific misconduct and reproducibility are rising, the Trust Seal serves as a visual indicator of reliability, recognizable to both human readers and AI discovery tools.
在一個對科學不端行為與可重現性日益關注的時代，「信任印章」充當了可靠性的視覺指標，無論是人類讀者還是 AI 搜尋工具都能辨識。
Born from discussions at a FASEB summit, the project is overseen by an independent, multi-stakeholder committee.
此計畫源於 FASEB 高峰會議上的討論，由一個獨立且多方利害關係人組成的委員會負責監督。
While the initiative was announced in June 2026, the first pilot programs are scheduled for late 2026, with official seals expected in early 2027.
雖然該倡議於 2026 年 6 月宣布，但首批試點計畫預計於 2026 年底進行，官方印章預計於 2027 年初發行。
It is important to note that this initiative is distinct from the 'Core Trust Seal,' which focuses specifically on data repositories.
需要注意的是，此倡議與專門針對數據儲存庫的「核心信任印章」（Core Trust Seal）有所不同。
Supported by major scientific societies and industry partners like Wiley, the Trust Seal represents a vital step toward greater transparency and accountability in scholarly publishing, helping the global community identify high-quality and trustworthy scientific output more easily.
在 Wiley 等大型科學學會與產業合作夥伴的支持下，「信任印章」象徵著朝向學術出版更透明化與問責制的一大關鍵步驟，協助全球社群更容易識別高品質且可信賴的科學成果。
