While peer review is critical to academic publishing and research, formal training opportunities for young physicians and physician-scientists are limited. In an effort to improve reviewer performance and quality of manuscript reviews, the IASLC and JTO/JTO CRR will conduct a formalized workshop to train reviewers, in particular, to be able to make judgements on impact of manuscripts, which is the most difficult part of the review process.

2022 Reviewer Workshop
Members from around the globe joined us at the JTO/JTO CRR Reviewer Workshop in Vienna, Austria at WCLC 2022. To see all of the pictures from the workshop, CLICK HERE.
