peer review board

Expert assessment panel

A peer review board is a committee that evaluates the work or conduct of professionals within the same field.

In medicine, such boards assess whether a physician's treatment decisions met acceptable standards.

In academia, they evaluate research for publication or funding.

The defining feature is judgment by equals—specialists reviewing other specialists rather than outside authorities.
