We are proud to announce that the Reviewer of the Month Award for September 2022 goes to Aly El-Makhzangy, MD PhD.
As a means to promote the hard work and dedication invested “behind the scenes” in order to improve scientific publications, each month, BJBMS Editors select a reviewer who performed the best amongst all the reviewers in the current month. Selection is based on the quality, thoroughness, and the timeliness of the review. It is a difficult task for our Editors, as they try not to underestimate the time and efforts of each of the reviewers who reviewed for the BJBMS in the current month.
Dr. Aly El-Makhzangy, professor at Ain Shams University and an Ear, Nose, and Throat specialist, has a particular research interest in a controversial condition of the larynx and vocal folds manifested in episodic attacks of aberrant vocal fold mobility.
We asked Dr. El-Makhzangy about the importance and other aspects of the peer-review process in general:
Peer reviewing has been an integral component of the propagation of knowledge reaped by scientific research through publication. Personally, as a clinical researcher, I think reviewing a manuscript submitted by a colleague or a research team provides an important opportunity to learn and probable potential for further research.
BJBMS congratulates Aly El-Makhzangy, MD PhD, and wishes him many awards and recognitions in the future.
