Joined the Elsevier-led editorial training for university journals.
Focused on editorial workflows, journal structure, and improving peer review processes.
Valuable insights for building strong, ethical, and scalable editorial teams.

I know, I know. I'm probably getting a reputation as someone who really does not like generative AI. Happy to argue about it. My latest complaint is that peer reviewers will increasingly have to review articles written in part by generative AI. I think that authors need to disclose *any* use of generative AI so that reviewers can decide if they want to review.
I explain why in the post.
Recently, our university became a sponsoring member of Peer Community In!
@PeerCommunityIn
PCI is a scholar-led, non-profit organization offering peer review, recommendation and publication of scientific articles in #OpenAccess for free.

I'm sure this has been proposed before, but I would really love it if, when I accepted a request to review a paper, that provided me with access to the cited papers. Especially when they are from the journal or publisher I'm reviewing for...

Do you know the feeling?! - "This makes me suspect that some reviewers are asking large language models to ‘write a critical review of this manuscript’ or ‘provide reasons to reject this paper’, then copying the output verbatim."

My very belated annual roundup of things we learned about peer review in 2024. Including structured peer review, reviewers' uncertainty, and "uselessly elongated review bias."

Before submitting your manuscript, make sure to include some obvious errors. This gives reviewers a sense of adding some value to the process, without asking you to change anything of consequence. #AcademicPublishing #AcademicJournals #AcademicChatter #PeerReview
Interesting to see that the editors of the Journal of Intangible Cultural Heritage Studies think of me as an expert of "The Doctoral Sword and the Living History in Finland" ;-) 
This journey would not be possible without the people behind the pages:
Our brilliant authors,
Our dedicated peer reviewers,
And our passionate editorial team.
Special thanks to our Editor-in-Chief Dr. habil. Judit Beke for leading with vision, warmth, and purpose.
#thankyou for believing in #OpenAccess, #academic dialogue, and meaningful #research
Here’s to the next 5 years!

Not to criticize, just to document the development: Between December 2023 and February 2024, the fee for Fast Track Review at the Journal of Medical Internet Research (JMIR) increased from 450 to 950 USD. #peerreview #scholcomm
I think I finally have this thing complete - the paper is live hosted on a little test node, also lives as README.md on the GitHub.

... aber jeweils ein etwas anderes Diagramm.
Diese werden automatisiert über einen MATLAB-Algorithmus (ohne KI 
) und über #TeXLaTeX in PDF-Dateien ausgegeben, die dann per E-Mail an die Studierenden verschickt werden.
Nach einer Woche Bearbeitungszeit korrigieren die Studierenden sich dann im #PeerReview-Verfahren gegenseitig.
Update. Here's another piece on teaching #PeerReview to #ECRs. In this case, the recommendation is for junior and senior scholars to review new work together.
