Paper Review Guidelines
You should include all of the following components in your reviews, but not
necessarily in the order indicated.
Do your reviews in 12 point font, single spaced, with standard (0.5 inch) margins.
Total points for each review is 8 points. Each review will add at the most 2 points to your
exam grades (out of 100). For example, a 6 out of 8 grade for the paper review would
result in +1.5 points or 1.5% to your total exam grade.
1. Background 1pt: Discuss the scientific context in which the experiments
are conducted, including (briefly) how the experiment relates to other work
in the field, and the importance of the system under study (but don’t feel
compelled to do any other research- just stick to what’s mentioned in the
introduction/background section of the paper).
2. Goal of experiment 1pt: What were the researchers trying to accomplish,
and why? What is the hypothesis that guides the experiments?
3. Explanation of Experiment 1pt: Briefly, what did the experiment(s) involve?
Discuss (in fairly broad terms) the methods used in the paper.
4. Interpretation of Results 1pt: What does the data obtained through the
experiment mean? Does it support or detract from the hypothesis on
which the experiments were based? Is the data ambiguous or fairly
substantive? What are the broader ramifications of the work?
5. Critique 2pts: What did the experimenters do wrong? What could they
have done better? Be specific as to what you think they did wrong or
missed. Keep in mind that a big part of science involves thinking critically
about our work and the work of colleagues. It’s what peer review is all
about.
6. Future Experiments 2pts: Design an additional experiment (or two) that
addresses deficiencies in the paper, or provides corroborative evidence
for the conclusions it draws. Be creative, but do attempt to stay within the
bounds of what is plausible. Typically, one point in this component is
reserved for the appropriateness of the experiment, the other for the
feasibility of the experiment.
