4. WHAT IS F1000RESEARCH?

5. F1000Research is an original open access journal for life scientists, offering immediate publication, transparent peer review (post-publication) and full data deposition and sharing. All scientifically sound articles are accepted, including single findings, case reports, protocols, replications, null/negative results and more traditional articles. F1000Research has a prestigious international Advisory Panel of more than 200 of the most eminent names in biology and medicine, and over 1,100 expert Editorial Board members.

6. KEY FEATURES OF F1000RESEARCH Publication within a week Post-publication peer review Transparent peer review All data included Accepts non-traditional article types

7. WHAT OUR AUTHORS ARE SAYING

8. TRANSPARENT POST-PUBLICATION PEER REVIEW

9. THE PUBLICATION PROCESS Most journals publish papers after they pass peer review. The peer review process can take months – sometimes years. After rejection, start over again with another journal. This delays publication.

10. PUBLICATION DELAY IS A PROBLEM Can be scooped during review process No recent published work to show for funding applications Lab members leave during revision process, and paper may never be published if the project is abandoned. Slows down research progress Frustrating...

11. THE PUBLICATION PROCESS F1000Research articles are published online after an in-house pre-refereeing check, on average, within 6 working days. Peer review and revisions are carried out publicly. Articles with sufficient positive referee reports are indexed in PubMed.

12. REFEREE REPORTS ARE PUBLIC All referee names are visible. Referee reports and other comments are visible to anyone.

13. VERSIONS Different versions of the article are tracked

14. REFEREE SCORES Approved Approved with reservations Not approved

15. INDEXED PAPERS Articles with sufficient positive evaluations are indexed in PubMed, Scopus, and Embase. or Minimal requirements for indexing

17. DATA SHARING AND PUBLICATION

18. WHY SHARE YOUR DATA? Reproduction/validation of research Testing additional hypotheses Teaching Integration with other data sets Increase efficiency, drive new knowledge discovery Funder requirement Academic credit

19. REPRODUCIBLE RESEARCH [W]e evaluated the replication of data analyses in 18 articles on microarray-based gene expression profiling published in Nature Genetics in 2005–2006...We reproduced two analyses in principle and six partially or with some discrepancies; ten could not be reproduced. The main reason for failure to reproduce was data unavailability. Ioannidis, J. P. A. et al. Repeatability of published microarray gene expression analyses. Nature Genetics 41, 149–55 (2009)

20. F1000RESEARCH REQUIRES ALL DATA TO BE INCLUDED Reports of findings of new research are always accompanied by the complete dataset on which they are based, provided in a form enabling confirmation or reuse of the data by other researchers. -from http://f1000research.com
