How do I accept a peer review invitation?

Invited reviewers will receive an email asking to do the review. The reviewer should inform the editor whether they are willing to accept the invitation or not by following the steps below:

  1. Click the link found within the received email
  2. Review the abstract and anonymous metadata prior of the submission to ascertain if suitable to review
  3. Once this has been considered and a decision made, Accept or decline the invitation by clicking ‘will do the review’ or ‘unable to do the review’.
  4. A template email will appear, where the decision can be sent back to the editor by pressing ‘Send’.

Accepting the invitation will also allow access to the full manuscript files. If the invitation is accepted the reviewer should continue with the remaining tasks on the display.
