Q: What is the peer-review process?

In brief, peer-review is a process utilized by research journals and academic publications to assess the quality and validity of a research manuscript. Because research is often highly specialized and technical, it can be difficult to assess a manuscript without coming from a similar background/area of study. In peer-review, 'peers' from the same field of research will evaluate the manuscript under question to give it a fair assessment for publication.
