Ratings and reviews

Great platform to network and learn from professionals in their fields. It is fun to create the hubs for conversations, comment on journal articles, and share grant opportunities. It is a useful function to be able to follow conversations and professionals. One challenge: Older comments within a hub may be difficult to get to if there are a lot of comments/replies. Option to change comment order would be help to reply easier. All in all, highly recommend for science professionals and students!

I entered into the app and was asked for s field. I selected "Engineering". Then, I was supposed to select journals I was interested in. Most options were medicine-related journals; none in the engineering field. What's the use? Uninstalled the app before even logging in.

Peeref is a great place to boost your academic and scientific career to the next level. Lots of journals, articles, webinars, hubs and funding opportunities are found in one place.
