🧵 Publication conflict of Interest

My supervisor just threw me a request to write up another student's thesis as a paper on short notice (3 days until deadline). As I support many of the masters and PhD students in the faculty, I just realised I participated in this student's study.
Now obviously, I won't write up this paper if I don't get co-authorship, but I'm not sure if being a co-author on a paper where you were a participant in the study is conflict of interest (I've never run into this situation before).
I've emailed my supervisor, but they are currently on leave. Can any other academic weigh in on this?

If you participated in a study, write up the paper and DON'T get to be a co-author, your supervisor is an asshole. Just make the student do his work. It's not your problem.

I'm that student. You WILL write it and I WILL be the first author.

The academic equivalent of telling the nerd to do your homework.
Better hop to it if you want to keep your social position nerd.

Why are you asking here of all places? Try the academia stackexchange. If you disregard this obviously correct advice, you're either larping or retarded

Just change your name in the study. Bingo, no more COI.
