Reviewer Resources
Guiding principles for ethical and effective peer evaluation.
Contributing as a reviewer for Journal of Hematology and Oncology Research (JHOR) involves maintaining the highest standards of scientific and ethical conduct. These resources assist both new and seasoned reviewers in performing high-impact assessments.
Ethical Obligations for Reviewers
- Objective Assessment: Evaluate manuscripts based solely on their individual merit, without bias toward the author’s background or affiliation.
- Timely Review: Aim for prompt evaluations to minimize the publication timeline for critical clinical research.
- Confidentiality: Do not share any details of the manuscript under review with external parties.
- Respect for Autonomy: Prioritize the author's intellectual autonomy throughout the review process.
- Conflict Declaration: Recuse yourself if a manuscript is closely related to your current research or if a conflict of interest exists.
Handling Submissions
Security: It is recommended to use PDF formats when handling manuscripts to ensure content
remains unchanged. Avoid making direct comments on Word versions unless requested.
