Latest review

First review round: 4.6 weeks. Overall rating: 3 (good). Outcome: Accepted.

Motivation:
Roughly 50% of the initial reviewer's comments were data we had on hand but were hoping to publish as a follow-up article as the model system was slightly different and the overall message could have been spun to incorporate a much broader audience; however, in the end the addition of this data made for a more complete story and probably a higher appeal for the smaller, target audience of the journal. Another 20% required the generation of completely new data sets which took quite some time and in only cases do I feel added to the completeness of the story. The final 30% were minor editorial changes that mirrored the preferences of the reviewers.
