JPAM Refereeing Awards

JPAM Editor, Erdal Tekin, wrote in his first blog post about the importance of referees:

Objective and careful review service by referees is perhaps the most critical component of the scientific review process. At the same time, it is often a thankless job, so many of us continue to accept review invitations out of a sense of professional duty and nothing else. I believe it is important to recognize the importance of refereeing service and to promote efficient and high-quality reviews. I am introducing annual awards for “Excellence in Refereeing.” Under this new award system, three reviewers at all career stages, who demonstrate excellence in quality and efficiency of their refereeing for the journal, will be awarded $500 each and receive a letter of commendation.
