Web of Science Reviewer Locator solves three problems:
Finding peer review candidates
Screening candidates’ fitness-for-purpose
Reliably connecting with preferred candidates.
Here’s how each of these steps work:
Find - Powerful and accurate search
Our powerful proprietary algorithm trawls the carefully curated Web of Science publication and citation index, and Publons exclusive cross-publisher peer review (and, coming soon, cross-funder grant peer review) database to return a ranked list of up to 30 potential reviewers, matched to your search inputs, from over 10 million authors.
