The peer review system is breaking down. Here’s how we can fix it Peer review is so integral to the scholarly system that research would grind to a halt without it.

#PeerReview is indeed breaking down, but I believe we should build it back up instead of scrapping it entirely.

It's how we ensure trust in science.

What would make you more likely to review your colleagues' new research?

Yep, Sagan was right...

Very inspiring. I only regret feeling that I'd have been more hopeful if I'd read this five years ago than I did today. I despise my own pessimism, but it's getting hard to see how some of the issues mentioned here can get actually solved.
