DESCRIPTION:Monday, October 19, 4:30 p.m. - 6 p.m.  Light refreshment
 s will be served beginning at 4:00 p.m.  University Club Ballroom A, 
 University of Pittsburgh\n\nModerator: Jackie Smith, Professor of Soc
 iology and editor,  Journal of World-Systems Research  Panelists: Bra
 ndon Stell, PubPeer;  Larry Kane, University of Pittsburgh, F1000 Res
 earch; Lenny Teytelman, Protocols.io;  Josh Nicholson, The Winnower  
 Independent peer review is one of the foundations of scholarship and a
  practice that has been in place in the academy for centuries. This pa
 nel will address innovations that promote transparency and accelerate 
 the pace of research, such as post-publication review, open peer revie
 w, and research evaluation ethics, exploring questions such as:\n\nWho
  qualifies as a peer reviewer?\nWhat kinds of content should be review
 ed? Datasets? Editorials?\nWhat are the strengths and weaknesses of pr
 e-publication vs. post-publication peer review?\nIs open peer review i
 ntegrated with the formal publication process? Does it need to be?\nWh
 at concerns are there with making peer review open? Are there benefits
  to anonymity, for example?\nHow do we ensure productive and civil dis
 course in a public review process?\nHow do these innovations change th
 e relationship between the reviewer and the author?\nIs it important t
 o address the novelty and significance of the research in the review, 
 or should it be only about content and soundness?\nWhat is the anticip
 ated trajectory of these changes in peer review and how might they aff
 ect research 25 years from now?\n\n\nAbout the panelists:  Larry Kane
