Review Timelines and Communication

Timely reviews help authors and editors maintain efficient publication timelines. If you need more time, notify the editorial office promptly. Accurate contact information ensures you receive invitations and updates without delay.

Areas of Expertise

Please list specific topics and methods you can review, such as resistance mechanisms, genomics, diagnostics, pharmacology, stewardship, or outbreak investigations. This helps us assign manuscripts that match your expertise.

Benefits of Reviewing

Reviewing provides early insight into new AMR research and supports professional development through critical evaluation experience. Consistent reviewers may be considered for editorial roles or special issue participation.

Confidentiality Expectations

Reviewer materials are confidential and must not be shared. Reviewers must disclose conflicts of interest and decline assignments when impartiality could be compromised.

Information to Include

When registering, list your AMR focus areas, methodologies, and recent publications so we can match you with appropriate manuscripts. You may also indicate preferred review frequency and any periods of limited availability.

We encourage ORCID IDs and institutional email addresses to verify expertise. Disclose any recurring collaborations, funding relationships, or ongoing projects that could introduce conflicts of interest so assignments remain impartial and transparent.

You can also list preferred study types, such as clinical trials, surveillance reports, or laboratory investigations, to improve matching and reduce turnaround time for assignments.

Preferred turnaround times can be noted to manage expectations.

We welcome bilingual reviewers for global submissions.
