Unfortunately this is still happening… see my post where in one week two papers were rejected after we did all the experiments asked for revision except a full animal experiment just as it was “nice to have” according to one reviewer!

Has a reviewer ever suggested you perform an extra experiment? 🧪 We’re guessing most of you will say yes. In 2011, Hidde Ploegh dubbed these suggestions “reviewer experiments” and boldly called for an end to their “wasteful tyranny.” #SciPub #PeerReview #Reviewer3 #Bioethics

Screenshot from the April 27, 2011 Nature World View article by Hidde Ploegh titled "End the wasteful tyranny of reviewer experiments." The authors of this post have added to the title, making it "End the wasteful tyranny of reviewer animal experiments." The article has been accessed 18,000 times, cited 41 times, and has an altmetric score of 488. The subtitle reads: "Peer review of scientific papers in top journals is bogged down by unnecessary demands for extra lab work, argues Hidde Ploegh."

Spontaneously representing EORS at @eutermis.bsky.social sister society symposium. I feel grateful for both societies as they bring complementary strengths. The discussion on #ATMP was very important. Thanks to the organizers Paul Wieringa and Suzanne Wolbank for reaching out to jump in.
