As a doctoral candidate or early-career researcher (ECR), have you ever been invited to serve as a peer reviewer for journals? What were your reactions to the invitation? Some may feel unprepared while others may think the invitation is out of their league. In this podcast, award-winning peer reviewers Sin Wang Chong and Shannon Mason share their experiences as ECR peer reviewers for journals in their disciplines. In particular, the speakers will invite junior researchers to consider the opportunity to serve as peer reviewers in a positive light and address some of the technical questions related to giving feedback to authors: What should be the focus of my feedback? How long should my reviewer鈥檚 report be? And many more.
