Reviewer Training: Providing training to reviewers on how to conduct unbiased reviews and recognize their own potential biases. Clear Guidelines: Establishing clear guidelines and criteria for the review process to ensure consistency and fairness in evaluations. Diverse Reviewer Pool: Utilizing a diverse pool of reviewers with different backgrounds and perspectives to minimize the influence of any single bias. Conflict of Interest Disclosure: Ensuring that reviewers disclose any potential conflicts of interest and recuse themselves if necessary.
