Can you be more clear about your position? Are doing research for a company?

The title suggest that you're academics but then you say that you aren't:

> how can academics protect themselves?

> do not hold academic/teaching positions.

Which one is it?

Yes, sorry I had to edit the title because it was too long, resulting in this confusion.

The authors are all staff at a teaching hospital, but do not hold teaching/academic positions and are not affiliated to the local university. Our boss is tenured, but is not an author and apparently doesn't care very much about this story.
