The first ever Peer Review Week, organized by WileyORCID, Sense about Science, and Science Open, wraps up today. Activities promoted a lively discussion, particularly on Twitter with #PeerRevWk15.

Peer review is one of the nine core areas of responsible conduct of research (RCR), plays an important role in how science self-corrects, and helps promote integrity in research and the published literature. ORI has funded a number of online learning tools, reference materials, and case studies on peer review to facilitate RCR instruction.
