Happy #PeerReviewWeek! Peer review is the backbone of Optica Publishing Group journals and ensures that our portfolio maintains a high quality of research. It results in the wonderful transformation of a paper from draft to publication, with a team of experts reviewing the research every step of the way. It verifies findings, improves the work of the overall optics community and builds integrity. You can play a part in advancing scholarly communication as a #PeerReviewer for the Optica Publishing Group. Find out more about peer review and how you can get started at the link in our bio.
