The value of joint peer review between early career researchers and supervisors

Peer review is essential for maintaining the quality of published research, but this skill is often not explicitly taught to early career researchers (ECRs). Joint peer review with supervisors can both promote ECR professional growth and enhance review quality. We describe the advantages and best practices of joint peer review.

Abstract

Peer review is essential for maintaining the quality of published research, but this skill is often not explicitly taught to early career researchers (ECRs). Joint peer review with supervisors can both promote ECR professional growth and enhance review quality. We describe the advantages and best practices of joint peer review.
