F1000, also known as Faculty of 1000, is an innovative open research publishing platform that provides a range of services to support the dissemination and evaluation of scientific research. It is part of the Taylor & Francis Group, a major academic publisher. F1000 is known for its unique approach to publishing, which includes open peer review and immediate publication.

History[edit | edit source]

F1000 was founded in 2000 by Vitek Tracz, a pioneer in open access publishing. The platform was initially created to provide a post-publication peer review service, allowing experts to evaluate and comment on published research. Over time, F1000 expanded its services to include a full-fledged publishing platform.

Publishing Model[edit | edit source]

F1000 operates on an open access model, meaning that all articles are freely available to the public. The platform supports a wide range of article types, including research articles, reviews, and data notes. One of the key features of F1000 is its open peer review process, where the identities of reviewers are disclosed and their reports are published alongside the article.

F1000Research[edit | edit source]

F1000Research is the flagship journal of F1000, offering rapid publication and transparent peer review. Articles submitted to F1000Research are published within days of submission, following a quick internal check. Peer review occurs post-publication, allowing for a more dynamic and interactive review process.

Services and Features[edit | edit source]

F1000 provides several services to enhance the research publication process:

  • Open Peer Review: Reviewers' names and comments are published alongside the article, promoting transparency and accountability.
  • Data Sharing: Authors are encouraged to share their data, which is published alongside the article to promote reproducibility and further research.
  • Article Versioning: Authors can update their articles with new data or corrections, with all versions being accessible to readers.

Impact and Reception[edit | edit source]

F1000 has been recognized for its innovative approach to scientific publishing. It has been praised for promoting transparency and openness in research, although it has also faced challenges in gaining widespread adoption among traditional researchers.
