1. Reviewer Selection and Conflicts of Interest
Expertise: Reviewers are selected based on their subject‑specific knowledge and professional competence.
Independence: Reviewers must be independent of the authors and free from competing interests that could bias their evaluation.

Recusal: Reviewers are expected to decline assignments if a conflict of interest exists or is perceived.
2. Reviewer Responsibilities and Conduct
