Peer review surveys for ASAPbio/HHMI/Wellcome Meeting #bioPeerReview

The following information is adapted from asapbio.org/peer-review/surveys and asapbio.org/peer-review/summary

On February 7-9, 2018, a group of approximately 90 junior and senior scientists, publishers, editors, and funders convened at HHMI Headquarters in Chevy Chase, MD for a meeting on Transparency, Recognition, and Innovation in Peer Review in the Life Sciences, organized by Wellcome, ASAPbio, and HHMI. The plenary sessions of the agenda were webcast, and all videos can be viewed in the webcast archive. Slides from talks can be downloaded from the agenda.

In the weeks leading up to the meeting, two surveys captured attitudes toward our current peer review system: one more general survey for all stakeholders (originally appeared on this page, closed 2018-02-06 with 295 responses) and one on Peer Feedback for authors and reviewers (appeared on the Peer Feedback page, closed 2018-01-31 with 370 responses). Both surveys were anonymous and no personally identifiable information was collected. Selected results from both surveys can be found in the presentation below. All original data CC-0; images CC-BY.
