WHAT DO PEOPLE SAY ABOUT FACULTY OF 1000?

“Faculty of 1000 is the most important tool for anyone working

in the biomedical arena today.”

Tom Waggitt – Sales Manager at Faculty of 1000

Page 17: Faculty of 1000

WHAT DO PEOPLE SAY ABOUT FACULTY OF 1000?

“The thing that’s missing from a lot of publications is the role of an interpreter who is an expert

in the field. F1000 provides this missing link through the voices of its broad and diverse faculty.”

Edward Benz – President, Dana-Farber Cancer Institute

Page 18: Faculty of 1000

WHAT DO PEOPLE SAY ABOUT FACULTY OF 1000?

“I find Faculty of 1000 useful for three main reasons: identifying key papers in areas outside my own;

highlighting papers in journals that I don’t normally read; and providing confirmation by an expert of a

paper I have read (i.e. a second opinion).”

Martin Raff – University College London and Fellow of the Royal Society
