As a Research Reviewer, you will play a crucial role in upholding the standards of open science and providing valuable feedback to authors. This is a high-impact opportunity to contribute your expertise, work alongside leaders in the field, and help elevate the quality of research in our community. + +## Responsibilities +- Evaluate submissions (papers, code, datasets) against the official [ONR Review Criteria](/neuromorphic-computing/research/guide/review-criteria/), focusing on clarity, reproducibility, technical rigor, and community value. +- Provide constructive, signed, and actionable feedback to help authors improve their work. +- Adhere to the principles of transparency and integrity outlined in the [ONR Reviewer's Guide](/neuromorphic-computing/research/guide/reviewer-guide/). +- Complete reviews in a timely manner to ensure a smooth process for authors. + +## Who We're Looking For +- Researchers, developers, and practitioners with expertise in any area of neuromorphic computing (e.g., hardware, SNN frameworks, computational neuroscience, event-based vision). +- Individuals with a strong commitment to the principles of open and reproducible science. +- Excellent analytical and written communication skills. +- Prior experience with academic or code peer-review is a plus, but not a requirement. + +## How to Apply +To become a reviewer, please follow the steps outlined in our **[ONR Reviewer's Guide](/neuromorphic-computing/research/guide/reviewer-guide/)**. The primary step is to ensure your OpenReview profile is up-to-date.
