Dear all,
We thought you might be interested in a new report by BioMed Central and Digital Science; apologies for cross-posting.
What might peer review look like in 2030?<https://figshare.com/articles/What_might_peer_review_look_like_in_2030_/4884878> examines how peer review can be improved for future generations of academics and offers key recommendations to the academic community. The report is based on the lively and progressive sessions at the SpotOn London conference held at Wellcome Collection Conference centre in November 2016.
It includes a collection of reflections on the history of peer review, current issues such as sustainability and ethics, while also casting a look into the future including advances such as preprint servers and Artificial Intelligence applications. The contributions cover perspectives from a researcher, a librarian, publishers and others.
It is particularly relevant today as the dates and theme of Peer Review Week have also been announced<https://peerreviewweek.wordpress.com/> (September 11-17, 2017 and 'Transparency in Review' respectively.)
Whether you're a frustrated scientist, a peer reviewer, an editor, a publisher or a librarian, we would love to hear your views. Please do tweet us using #SpotOnReport, or email us ([log in to unmask]<mailto:[log in to unmask]>).
Best wishes
Amy
