A journal trialled paying their reviewers and found it led to faster first editorial decisions – and increased review quality go.nature.com/3RcRfpY
Why paying peer reviewers works, according to a journal’s editor-in-chief
Nature - A biology journal which paid peer reviewers found that the approach cut the time to a first editorial decision by 85% and maintained high-quality reviews.

Thank you to @sciam.bsky.social for letting me dig into the protein enhancement fad. 1. If you are an elite athlete, OR elderly/frail, maybe you do need extra protein. 2. That's not you. You're not an elite athlete. 3. If it is you: consider yogurt. www.scientificamerican.com/article/prot...
Are protein-boosted foods and drinks actually more healthy?
Extra protein can be found in everything now, from potato chips to Pop-Tarts. Does this benefit the average eater?
