当你在学术界工作时,你经常会听到“出版或灭亡”这句话。也就是说,要获得成功和富有成效,一个人必须不断地向公众展示对其研究领域的外向贡献。根据这一想法,许多生物科学博士项目都要求学生必须发表第一作者论文才能毕业。这种经历让学生有机会从作者的角度参与出版过程;然而,研究生、博士后研究员和年轻专业人员(即早期职业研究人员)正式参与出版的同行评审和编辑方面的机会却很少。研究表明,超过 50% 拥有同行评审经验的早期职业研究人员 (ECR) 是通过其首席研究员 (PI) 受邀审稿人对稿件进行核心评审而获得的(McDowell 等人,2019)。虽然共同评审可以为 ECR 提供所需的经验,但他们的贡献往往不会得到正式的认可。这使得他们无法引用这些贡献作为相关经验,因为 ECR 没有记录在他们帮助审稿的期刊中,使得他们的贡献无法验证。此外,缺乏正规培训是同行评审的一个主要问题。 ECR 报告称,他们通过接受对自己工作或 PI 的评审而接受了同行评审培训(McDowell 等,2019)。这可能会导致对同行评审员的期望以及人们应该如何批判性和公平地评估研究产生误解。为此,美国遗传学会建立了同行评审培训计划,ECR 可以通过稿件评审流程申请接受正式培训和反馈(美国遗传学会,2021)。其他出版服务公司,例如 Elsevier 和 Wiley,为学生提供在线自学课程。
When you work in academia, you often hear the phrase ‘publish or perish’. That is to be successful and productive one must constantly show public, outward facing contributions to their eld of study. In line with this idea, many doctoral programmes in the biological sciences have a requirement that students have a rstauthor paper published to graduate. This experience gives students an opportunity to participate in the publication process from the perspective of an author; however, the opportunities for graduate students, postdoctoral fellows and young professionals (ie, early career researchers) to become formally involved in the peer-review and editorial side of publishing are few and far between. It has been shown that over 50% of early career researchers (ECRs) who have experience in peer-review gained it through coreview of a manuscript where their Principal Investigator (PI) was the invited reviewer (McDowell et al., 2019). While co-reviewing can give needed experience to ECRs, they often do not receive formal credit for their contributions. This prevents them from citing these contributions as relevant experience because the ECR is not on-record with the journal they helped review for, making their contribution unveriable. Additionally, the lack of formal training is a major issue in peer-review. ECRs reported that they received training in peer-review from receiving reviews on their own work or from their PI (McDowell et al., 2019). This may lead to misunderstandings in the expectations of a peer-reviewer and how one should critically and fairly evaluate research. To this end, the Genetics Society of America has established a peerreview training programme, where ECRs can apply to receive formal training and feedback through the manuscript review process (Genetics Society of America, 2021).
