cc-ethics-registration
Use when assembling ethics approvals and availability statements for a Cancer Cell (Cell Press) manuscript — IACUC animal approval, human-sample IRB/consent, biosafety, and data/code deposition statements. It governs compliance declarations; it does not design experiments or write methods detail.

What does the cc-ethics-registration skill do?

How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills --skill cc-ethics-registration --agent claude-code` — it drops the skill into your project so the agent can pick it up. Swap the --agent value for codex, cursor or copilot if you use one of those.
Where does this skill come from?
From brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills, a repository with 909 stars. We read it straight from the repository tree rather than a submitted listing, so what you see here is what is actually published.
Is a popular skill a good skill?
Not necessarily. Stars measure attention, not adoption — a repository can trend for a week and be abandoned. That is why we show the weekly change from our own snapshots next to the total, instead of a single flattering number.
