This Peer Review Week's theme is Peer Review Capacity: Volume, Speed, and Quality; and if there's one thread through all of it, it's this: peer review doesn't need more strain, it needs better-matched infrastructure.
In the past week we have discussed all three elements in separate blogs:
-Volume - smarter matching, not just more reviewers
-Speed - faster decisions without skipping integrity checks
-Quality - starts with knowing who your reviewers really are
One action ties all together: claim your OpenAlex profile. Claiming your profile can be done at openalex.org (we have a full guide on this blog post).
If you are a researcher, go to OpenAlex and claim your profile!
If you work with researchers, in whatever capacity, tell your researchers about the way the academic ecosystem will benefit from them claiming their OpenAlex profile!
