Serving the scientific community

To become a peer-reviewer of a scientific journal at the early career stage, the best way is first to be trained as a peer-reviewer

-Focus on Peer Review — free course, Nature Masterclasses

-ACS Reviewer Lab (will get a certification upon completion)

-Certified Peer Reviewer Course, Elsevier Researcher Academy

Editors can be contacted directly by expressing your interest of serving as a peer-reviewer.

Xinxin is now an associate editor of the journal Heliyon, drop a message if you want to review chemistry related manuscripts.
