For reviewers

Research depends on reviewers.

The best thing that can happento a paper is a good reviewer.

Every researcher has had one. The next paper needs one too.

Why researchers do it

What you get out of it.

Reviewing is unpaid. It is not unrecorded, and the record is worth having.

Recognition

Every review earns a certificate.
