Our scientific identities shape our notions of quality, value, and relevance, adding an essential human dimension to the evaluation of science. It is therefore time to think (and act) outside the box and to explore peer review as an identity-informed rather than identity-agnostic mechanism in science.

It’s Peer Review Week, and we are excited to participate with a series of blog posts centered around this year’s theme “Identity in Peer Review”. We’ll start off the series with a reflection by De Gruyter’s Vice President of Global Publishing Tom Clark.
