Become a reviewer

Join the reviewer pool in a field you actually work in.

JPBS invites reviewers who can judge methods in the pharmaceutical and biomedical sciences: people who publish, supervise, or run the assays and analyses the journal receives. Apply from a JPBS author account — the same login used to submit manuscripts.

Holding a particular degree is not a substitute for expertise in the manuscript in front of you. Applications are read by editors; acceptance into the pool is not a promise that you will be invited, and invitations are not a promise that every report will be used.

What we expect

  • Keep unpublished manuscripts confidential, including from generative-AI tools.
  • Declare competing interests.
  • Decline promptly when you cannot review.
  • Write reports that authors can act on.

Reviewer applications use a JPBS author account. Create that account first, then apply from this page. Editors add the reviewer role to the same login.
