Conference

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

 

What? The Congress will provide a forum for the presentation and discussion of new 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.

Who? Participants will include editors and publishers of scientific peer-reviewed journals, researchers, funders, bibliometric and informatics experts, information innovators, librarians, journalists, policymakers, ethicists, scientific information disseminators, and anyone interested in the progress of the scientific information enterprise and the quality of scientific evidence.

The Congress embraces a wide range of disciplines, including biomedicine, health and life sciences, applied sciences, basic sciences, physical and chemical sciences, mathematics, computer sciences, engineering, economics, and social sciences. New and emerging disciplines are also welcome.

Why? 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.
