What is this about?
Why is this important?
Pre-publication peer review is based on the editor’s choice of experts to whom the task of assessing a manuscript will be assigned. In post-publication peer review, the assessment is open to anyone. The exception to this is F1000, where post publication peer review is still by invitation, but still, anyone can comment and add their insights. Some argue that PPPR will help in the correction of literature and renew trust in science [1]. Others compare it to online comments, and argue that there is no guarantee that the persons commenting will have any expertise. [2] [3]
