A unique opportunity to benefit from the experience of a Cell editor, to improve your understanding of Peer Review. The half-day interactive workshop is designed to open up the peer review process for (future) authors and reviewers. The workshop will answer the following questions: What is the purpose of the peer review process? What things are important to remember when reading reports on your own paper, or writing comments on another author’s paper? And how does the Journal Editor fit into the conversation? These points will be under discussion alongside an examination of a published Cell paper and its first and second round reviewer reports. There will also be preparatory and homework components to the workshop to give participants an opportunity for personal editorial feedback on a review assignment. Workshop strictly limited to 20 participants.
Preregistration is required. To confirm, email both angelika@mit.edu and joyoung@mit.edu
