The 2026 SIOP Annual Conference Call for Proposals submission center officially closed earlier this month. Thank you to all who submitted! Your enthusiasm to contribute to the SIOP scientific community is an invaluable benefit even beyond the annual conference.
There is still a need for reviewers to review the over 1,200 proposals that have been submitted. Please consider volunteering just 2-3 hours of your time to assist in this most crucial part of the process.
Please note if you submitted a proposal, you will automatically be enrolled as a reviewer.
Who is eligible to review?
- All current SIOP Fellows, Members, Associates, and Retired members are eligible to serve as reviewers.
- SIOP Students who have submitted a proposal to previous SIOP Annual Conferences that was accepted.
Why should I serve as a reviewer?
- You will play a key role in helping us to fill the conference program with valuable, compelling content. Peer review is a critical part of the scientific process and helps to ensure that the content accepted to the conference represents high quality work in both science and practice.
What is expected of me as a reviewer?
- In October, you will be assigned 3-5 submissions and will have at least 3 weeks to complete your reviews. We make every attempt to assign you submissions that fall within the content area(s) you select in the sign-up process, and we also aim to evenly distribute session types across reviewers.
- Reviewers typically spend 20-45 minutes on each submission, so we ask that you plan for approximately 2 hours to complete your reviews. Some will need less time; some will need more.
- You will be asked to provide both number ratings and written comments on the submissions through the online submission review form.
If you have any questions about reviewing or the proposal submission process, please email program@siop.org.
