Peer review is at the core of academic publishing, enabling transparency, collaboration, and the advancement of knowledge. At ScienceOpen, we empower researchers to review preprints and articles in an open, community-driven environment. Open peer review allows for greater accountability and diverse feedback, providing valuable insights that imrpove research quality and credibility.

To participate, simply create a free ScienceOpen account (or log in with your ORCID). With our intuitive search engine and smart filters, finding articles or preprints to review is straightforward. ScienceOpen’s review process includes a structured rating system – covering factors like importance, validity, completeness, and clarity – and the option to submit a detailed written review.

Even early-career researchers can get involved, with support available for those eager to contribute!
