RMeS Workshop: Academic Peer Review and the Art of Constructive Feedback
27 February 2025 | Utrecht University
Peer review is one of the cornerstones of modern academia, an essential service that every academic will at some point be asked to perform. Most students will already be familiar with the practice of giving peer feedback, but how does ‘real’ academic peer review work? What is the purpose of a peer reviewer, and what is not? What happens to a review once it has been submitted? What makes a good peer review? And how do you avoid becoming the much-maligned ‘Reviewer #2’? In this workshop, we will address these questions and more.
