Invitation to Review

The EIC selects potential reviewers based on their expertise in research areas relevant to the manuscript under consideration. Reviewer invitations are sent by email from the journal's submission system, OJS. Accept an invitation only if you have the knowledge, time, and objectivity necessary to provide an unbiased assessment of the research. In agreeing to complete a review, you also give permission to archive your review under a Creative Commons Attribution CC BY license.

ORCID

Link your IBTJBS-OJS reviewer account to your ORCID record to support free and open access to rigorous research. Set up syncing to have reviewer activity automatically posted to your ORCID profile. This record will confirm that you completed a review for the journal, but won’t publish the content of your review.

How to Submit a Peer Review in OJS

IBT JBS uses a structured reviewer form to help reviewers focus on our publication criteria and improve the efficiency of peer review. The review form contains two sections:

• Comments to the author: Answers to the questions in this section are required and will be included in the decision letter to the author.
• Comments to the EIC/editor: Use this section to declare any potential or perceived competing interests.
