What is PREreview?
PREreview is a platform for hosting resources to help early-career researchers (ECRs) run preprint journal clubs, learn how to constructively peer review other scientists work, and share their feedback with the community.
We see PREreview as a hub to support and nurture the growth of a community that openly exchanges timely, constructive feedback on emerging scientific outputs. We believe that by empowering ECRs through peer review training programs, thereby increasing the diversity of researchers involved in the peer review process, PREreview will help establish a healthier and more sustainable culture around research dissemination and evaluation.
We want to facilitate a cultural shift in which every scientist posts, reads, and engages with preprints as standard practice in scholarly publishing. We strive to diversify peer review in the academic community by crowdsourcing pre-publication feedback to improve the quality of published scientific output, and by training ECRs in how to constructively review others' scientific work.
