Ninth International Congress on Peer Review and Scientific Publication

Our aim is to encourage research into the quality and credibility of peer review and scientific publication, to establish the evidence base on which scientists can improve the conduct, reporting, and dissemination of scientific research.

“In these historically challenging circumstances, we announce the Ninth International Congress on Peer Review and Scientific Publication,¹ which will take place September 12-14, 2021, in Chicago, Illinois. Since the very first Congress in 1989, founded by Drummond Rennie,² the aim has been to encourage research into the quality and credibility of peer review and scientific publication. The goal is to strengthen the evidence base so that all those involved in science (including but not limited to researchers, editors, publishers, funders, policy makers, academics, and representatives of universities, industry, media, and the general public) can improve the conduct, reporting, and dissemination of scientific research.¹ “
