I have recently been asked to be a reviewer for a medical journal (impact factor ~3) regarding a basic science article. It is in my area of expertise (RNA-seq, gene expression studies) and I have published only a handful of first-author papers in this field. However, I only have a B.Sc. (North America). I am confident in my ability to review but I have some questions:
- It is appropriate to accept this review ? I thought only doctorates are allowed to review papers.
- I am going to medical school this year and subsequently residency. Is there any way I can list this on my residency application? Specifically on the Electronic Residency Application Service® (ERAS®).
