With the end of the summer here in the northern hemisphere the nights are growing longer and, with the start of the academic year, so is our schedule of external presentations, panels and workshops. Below is a list of our external presentations/talks, panel discussions, and educational workshops until the end of 2013, so far.

These dates don’t include talks from F1000 Specialists, a number of whom are planning events in the coming weeks. We’ll update this blog post with more information about different events and add any new dates where applicable.

If you’d like to organize a presentation on behalf of or about F1000 at your university or other organization or event, please contact us. Our presentations cover a range of topics – from how to use specific F1000 services to broader developments in research assessment, peer review, publishing, data sharing, and careers in science publishing. We hope to see you at one of our events.
