Last year was a year of change for me, personally. My family relocated to a new country at the start of the year. We went from “should we?” to “should we not?” as I meticulously worked on a very detailed pro and con list to decide whether the move would be worth the risk. Would we hate it? Or love it? Once the move was made, there was no turning back (at least for a few years!). It was just a question of adapting — and adapting fast. I feel like academia has followed a similar trajectory.

Editor’s Note: Every year as we enter the holiday season, we take a moment to pause and look back on the best books we encountered (not a “best books of 2024″ list, but a list of the best books the Chefs read during 2024 — the books might be classics, a few years old, or brand new). In recent years we expanded our list to include any sort of cultural creation or experience our Chefs wanted to share. Here’s Part 2 of our list, Part 1 can be found here and part 3 tomorrow.

I have always advocated for the author — how can we understand the author, their cultural context, their challenges as they navigate publication and how can we support them better? It is ironic then that today, instead of subtracting from the umpteen tasks that authors are expected to do, I want to focus on one additional task that I believe that authors should take on. I want to add to the list and not subtract, for a change. I would like to advocate for the adoption of graphical abstracts.

With Peer Review Week fast approaching, I’m hoping the event will spur conversations that don’t just scratch the surface, but rather dig deeply into understanding the role of peer review in today’s digital age and address the core issues peer review is facing. To me, one of the main issues is that AI-generated content has been discovered in prominent journals. A key question is, should all of the blame for these transgressions fall on the peer review process?
