Excited to see our NMH paper featured here for #WorldMentalHealthDay! https://t.co/ij54cQIDHK Many psychiatric symptoms are inherently social. @XiaosiGu, @JoeBarnby, & I call for models that reflect processes most relevant to our questions, esp. for those about social symptoms

I'm especially excited about using computational tools to 1) better understand brain-body-environment interaction (including our social structure and relationships); and 2) advance treatment optimization/selection/creation for mental health conditions. Stay tuned for more!

At @YaleMed I'm excited about continuing my work in computational psychiatry, bridging across departments (Psychiatry, Data Science, Neurosurgery, Neurology, Child Study, etc) and centers/institutes (Center for Brain and Mind Health, Wu Tsai Institute, etc).

@IcahnMountSinai has shaped my career in so many important ways, and I will always be grateful to the amazing people that I worked with for the past 7(+4) years. In particular, the opportunity to build and lead the @SinaiCCP, was a dream come true.

A sustainable, fair, and efficient peer review system benefits us all and also depends on us all. We hope that this small step will help improve our current peer review system. Stay tuned with us and importantly, we hope you will contribute to the CPSY peer review process!

As such, introducing payments will not bias the outcome of the review – a concern raised by some in the past. We believe this change will enhance the fairness, efficiency, and equity of our peer review system.

Under CPSY's new model, reviewers’ compensation does not depend on the specific recommendation (accept/reject/revise) for the paper; instead, reviewers will be compensated per article as long as the peer review process for that article is complete.

However, this can no longer be justified when publishing companies are amassing huge profits and expanding their businesses by creating new journals. Meanwhile, the same scientists who review for journals for free get charged for reading papers and for publishing their papers.

Why aren't reviewers compensated, as is the case for any other type of labor? Traditionally, volunteering one's time to review manuscripts for the field is seen as part of scholarly citizenship – something you just do to support the field, not for personal gain.

Peer review is a cornerstone of the scientific publishing ecosystem. However, with the exponential growth of research, our current peer review model is clearly unsustainable. Reviewers are often overloaded with requests and editors often struggle to secure reviews.
