INTRODUCTION: Peer review, a cornerstone of academia, promotes rigor and
relevance in scientific publishing. As educators are encouraged to adopt a more
scholarly approach to medical education, peer review is becoming increasingly
important. Junior educators both receive the reviews of their peers, and are also
asked to participate as reviewers themselves. As such, it is imperative for
junior clinician educators to be well-versed in the art of peer reviewing their
colleagues' work. In this article, our goal was to identify and summarize key
papers that may be helpful for faculty members interested in learning more about
the peer-review process and how to improve their reviewing skills. METHODS: The
online discussions of the 2016-17 Academic Life in Emergency Medicine (ALiEM)
Faculty Incubator program included a robust discussion about peer review, which
highlighted a number of papers on that topic. We sought to augment this list with
further suggestions by guest experts and by an open call on Twitter for other
important papers. Via this process, we created a list of 24 total papers on the
topic of peer review. After gathering these papers, our authorship group engaged
in a consensus-building process incorporating Delphi methods to identify the
papers that best described peer review, and also highlighted important tips for
new reviewers. RESULTS: We found and reviewed 24 papers. In our results section,
we present our authorship group's top five most highly rated papers on the topic
of peer review. We also summarize these papers with respect to their relevance to
junior faculty members and to faculty developers. CONCLUSION: We present five key
papers on peer review that can be used for faculty development for novice writers
and reviewers. These papers represent a mix of foundational and explanatory
papers that may provide some basis from which junior faculty members might build
upon as they both undergo the peer-review process and act as reviewers in turn.
