How many times have we sat in a journal club and said, “I can’t believe the reviewers didn’t ask the authors to do X?” I’m sure there are many instances in which the reviewers probably did ask the authors to do X, and the authors had a good reason for not including information about it. Publishing peer review reports would provide transparency on these back-and-forths and give a fuller description of the science presented, including negative results and future directions.
