1. Rapid publication

Our rapid publication model offers an innovative alternative to traditional journals publishing, where long delays between submission and publication are expected. 

2. Maximize the impact of your work with Open Access

With fully open publication as standard on F1000Research, anyone can read, cite, and use your work – including policymakers, practitioners, and fellow researchers. F1000Research also advocates a rigorous Open Data policy so that others can replicate your study, reproduce the original findings, or reuse the data to support their own work.

3. Support transparency and reproducibility

The F1000Research publication model puts transparency and reproducibility at the heart of what we do. Our platform facilitates transparent sharing of research by publishing all articles openly, alongside access to any underlying data, software, code, and other resources – even the peer review reports. This focus on transparent, reproducible research supports the credibility and rigor of your published work.

4. Wide range of research outputs

At F1000Research, we really hate research waste. That's why we support the publication of Clinical Practice Articles,  Data Notes, and Case Reports, alongside Living Systematic Reviews and Research Articles. We welcome both confirmatory and negative results, as well as null studies.

5. Increase the visibility of your research

Once your article has passed peer review, inclusion in Scopus, PubMed, Google Scholar and other major indexers will help it reach more readers. On F1000Research, your article is supported by machine-readable metadata to boost discoverability
