We are building a journals ranking different from any other, the only one based on the actual assessment of actual researchers, the first one made by peers for peers. Click here for more details on our approach!
Do we still believe in journal metrics?!
Peer review is the gold standard of research evaluation, end of discussion. However, it is expensive – referees’ time is a precious resource. This is why bibliometric indicators are and will be used for a long time, hopefully for minor decisions (e.g. day-to-day funding, not hiring). Our goal is to build an indicator as good as humanly possible.
