Based on her review of the papers she found, she has enlisted some practical suggestions one can use while conducting peer review such as being aware of your own biases, taking initiative to address biases at an individual level as well as publisher level, considering blind and open peer review forms, the need for academics to get trained to improve the inclusion of diverse groups in peer review, and so on. \u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin: 0in 0in 10pt;\"><span style=\"font-size: 11pt;\"><span style=\"line-height: 115%;\"><span style=\"font-family: Calibri,sans-serif;\"><b>2.

She points out that even conferences focused on policymaking fail to produce policy briefs. She says, \u201cIt seems to me that conferences can be fantastic sites at which to stimulate and facilitate policy impact; however, I don\u2019t think the research or policy communities are making the most of this.\u201d She further goes on to discuss how conferences bring policymakers, policyshapers, and academics under one roof so that they can converse and exchange ideas. According to her, policy engagement in conferences can help academia to have the desired impact on policymaking.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin: 0in 0in 10pt;\"><span style=\"font-size: 11pt;\"><span style=\"line-height: 115%;\"><span style=\"font-family: Calibri,sans-serif;\"><b>3.

Mariam says, \u201cI thought about what had worked well and not so well for me as a trainee, and how to create best practices for my lab.

While Aly confesses that creating the manual is a time-consuming and painstaking process, it helps in the long run as the trainees understand what the expectations from them are and they find answers to most of their questions with ease.
