External peer reviewers
We recognize the time and commitment invested by the following Concordia faculty members and thank them for their outstanding service.
Peer review forms the basis for virtually all research funding decisions made by government funding agencies, including the Fonds de recherche du Québec (FRQ) and the Canadian Tri-agency (NSERC, SSHRC and CIHR).
Many other Concordia researchers, not listed here, also deserve recognition for the important contributions they make to the peer review process.
Peer reviewer list
This list was generated based on the public disclosures of peer-reviewers from the Tri-Agency and FRQ. Each agency varies in how they define their competition year, however, all of these disclosures were collected in the summer of 2023 and generally pertain to funding competitions that closed about 18 months before this date.
