NIOSH Peer Review Agenda


At a glance
 NIOSH invites outside experts to provide peer review of draft documents that are likely to have impact on public policy or the private sector. These documents are designated as Influential Scientific Information or Highly Influential Scientific Assessments. To be transparent about this process, NIOSH shares informaton about current and recently completed peer reviews.

 Overview Peer review ensures that the quality of published information meets the standards of the scientific and technical community. Specialists in the field who were not involved in writing the draft document review and provide feedback. Peer reviewers may provide overall comments or respond to specific technical questions posed by the authors. NIOSH provides information on this page about peer review of Influential Scientific Information and Highly Influential Scientific Assessments. These documents have a potential impact on public policy or the private sector. Sharing this information demonstrates NIOSH's efforts to use only the most transparent and independent peer review,
appropriate research methods, and
highest level of data quality. In addition, this information demonstrates NIOSH compliance with the Information Quality Act (2000), 44 U.S.C. §3516. NIOSH also complies with the peer review standards developed by the Office of Management and Budget (OMB), Department of Health and Human Services, and CDC. The OMB Peer Review Bulletin describes specific requirements. OMB also encourages federal agencies to make specific information on the peer review of influential documents publicly available.
