For other uses, see F1000 (disambiguation).

F1000 (formerly "Faculty of 1000") is an open research publisher for scientists, scholars, and clinical researchers. F1000 offers a different research evaluation service from standard academic journals by offering peer-review after, rather than before, publishing a research article.[1] Initially, F1000 was named after the 1,000 faculty members that performed peer-reviews, but over time F1000 expanded to more than 8,000 members. When F1000 was acquired by Taylor & Francis Group in January 2020, it kept the publishing services.[2] F1000Prime (AKA Faculty Opinions) and F1000 Workspace (AKA Sciwheel) were acquired by different brands.[3][4]

History edit

Faculty of 1000 was founded in 2000 by publishing entrepreneur Vitek Tracz in London.[5] Initially, it was named after the 1,000 experts it had reviewing academic works, but over time F1000 expanded to more than 8,000 members.[6] In 2002, it introduced F1000Prime (later known as Faculty Opinions), which recommended scientific articles selected by its experts.[7] At first, F1000 was focused on biology, but later expanded to additional scientific fields over time, including a focus on medicine beginning in 2006.[8][9][10]

The company was part of the Science Navigation Group until its acquisition by Taylor & Francis in January 2020.[3] As part of the deal, founder Vitek Tracz remained the owner of Prime and Workspace, leaving the new F1000 (and F1000Research) owned by Taylor & Francis.[3] Faculty Opinions (F1000Prime) was later acquired by a tech company called H1 in February 2022.[4] F1000 now only provides publishing and related services.[11]

Services edit

F1000 is an open research publisher for academic works.[6] Its model focuses on publishing findings quickly using a post-publication peer-review system.[7] Authors submit an article and all of its underlying data.[5] F1000 does a prepublication check and publishes the article, usually within a couple weeks.[6][12] After the article is published, an expert is assigned to conduct a peer-review of the work. The peer-review is done publicly, online, and on an ongoing basis.[6] The expert conducting the peer review discloses their name and any vested interests, abandoning the double-blind, anonymous peer-review system that is typical in academic publishing.[5][6] Additionally, other organizations like the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation (platform Gates Open Research[13]) and the European Commission (platform Open Research Europe[14]) contract out the development and support of their own open-access publishing systems to F1000.[15][16]

It publishes articles and "collections" of other research content such as presentations. Users can filter articles to see only those that have passed peer review.[12] In January 2020, the publisher Taylor & Francis bought F1000Research.[2]

Previous services edit

F1000 used to operate Faculty Opinions, formerly known as F1000Prime, until F1000 was acquired by Taylor & Francis in 2020. The founder of F1000 remained the owner of Prime, which he subsequently sold to tech company H1 in February 2022.[3][4] Faculty Opinions draws attention to scientific works that are well-rated by F1000's experts. The Faculty Opinions ranking system further provides an alternative article highlighting system from the use of article impact metrics like total citation count.[6] Faculty Opinions experts nominate primary research papers they felt were important or interesting, write a description of the work's significance, then link to where the work was originally published.[6][8]

Sciwheel, formerly F1000Workspace, was a citation manager platform previously operated by F1000. SciWheel also offered article recommendations based on a user's existing reference library.[6] After the acquisition, it was owned by F1000 founder Vitek Tracz,[3] before being acquired by SAGE Publishing in 2022.[17]
