“Reviewing for Materials has been a rewarding experience that deepens my engagement with cutting-edge research and supports the advancement of scientific quality.”—Dr. Armin Gharibi

“Peer review is the cornerstone of scientific integrity, ensuring methodological rigor and reproducibility in materials research. My review prioritized critical evaluation of experimental design, data validity, and alignment with field advancements, while balancing constructive critique to foster innovation. Rigorous scrutiny safeguards the journal’s standards and accelerates impactful discoveries for both academia and industry.”—Dr. Chenhui Yang

“Providing constructive comments as a reviewer helps rapidly disseminate the latest knowledge for science development. I was fortunate to be a part of making this crucial contribution to Materials.”—Dr. Hiroyuki Ueda

“The instructions and communication with the editorial team of Materials were always on point and very user-friendly, providing quick and reliable scientific peer review to reach high-quality publishing standards.”—Dr. Jelena Jadzic

“First and foremost, I would like to express my gratitude to those who have promoted this recognition. But I would also like to go further: I want to encourage all those involved in the task of review. We should approach this activity in the spirit of good sportsmanship, considering ourselves athletes who compete with ourselves in the pursuit of knowledge and understanding. For us, the simple principles that are familiar to anyone who has nobly practised a sport apply: "citius, fortius, altius"-faster, stronger, higher.
Those of us dedicated to this task are not only seeking excellence and personal growth, but we also hope that our efforts and knowledge will contribute to the dissemination of knowledge for the benefit of all.”—Dr. Jose Luis Diaz-Hernandez

“As a peer reviewer, my responsibility is not only to uphold research quality in the growing number of scientific articles, but to provide guidance and support for promising, less experienced authors.”—Prof. Dr. Arno Schindlmayr
