Publons, the online platform serving the needs of academic peer reviewers, editors and the wider research community, has announced an expanded partnership with academic and educational publisher SAGE Publishing.
Building on the current trial with SAGE, this expanded partnership means Publons' reviewer recognition service will be rolled out to up to 500 additional leading journal titles. Reviewers for these journals can instantly add a verified record of every review performed to their Publons profile with the click of a button. Participating journals will benefit from the increased visibility of peer review contributions, enabling reviewers, editors and institutions to easily keep track of reviewer activity, while maintaining reviewer anonymity.
Publons mission is to speed up research by harnessing the power of great peer review. By turning peer review into a measurable research output, researchers now have evidence of their reviewing contributions influencing published science. With better incentives for researchers to peer review, Publons aims to improve the quality and efficiency of both peer review and scholarly communication.
