Calling all life science and clinical researchers at Durham University, your trial to F1000Prime is active and allows you full access to all content in F1000Prime! This includes F1000Journal Clubs – our recently launched tool for creating, organizing, and sharing the outputs of your journal club meetings.
Last week we were very pleased to publish the first F1000Research Article Collection. The BioJS collection was initially launched with 12 open source biological visualisation components, one BioJS community article and an overarching editorial. It was very exciting for us to publish this collection based on an open source software initiative which is going from…
The obvious answer to this question is graduate school. However, getting through graduate school is easier said than done. You may not have realized the amount of your time a PhD will eat up, how much it costs, or the people who you’ll heavily rely on to get you through. Those of you who have…
Today, we are pleased to announce the arrival of F1000Research Article Collections, which launches with 14 new articles based upon open source biological visualisation components, and comprises the start of the BioJS collection, guest edited by F1000Research editorial board member Manuel Corpas from The Genome Analysis Centre (TGAC), UK. The articles that comprise the BioJS…
Literature discovery tools and services are gaining in popularity among scientists. A principal consideration when choosing one of these services is how much help they can provide scientists and doctors in their work, while ease of use and user support should also be taken into consideration. Join us on Wednesday, January 29th at 1pm ET…
Just before we broke up for the holidays at the end of last year we were lucky enough to have editorial board member and F1000Research author Professor Ali Mobasheri visit us in our London office. During the visit (and after the obligatory tea and biscuits!) we managed to capture on camera a brief overview of…
This has been quite a year for us in F1000Prime. Our development team was kept very busy this year, helping us build and launch our new Journal Clubs feature, a new interactive and personalized homepage, and enabling us to ‘follow’ articles and Faculty Members, as well as nominate articles. We launched a new initiative –…
Clinical trials acronyms – like them or loathe them, more and more study groups are now shoehorning these in (I’m looking at you, ENTICES trial, which supposedly stands for ‘ENoxaparin and TIClopidine after Elective Stenting’). Some acronyms are more believable, like the BBC-ONE trial (‘British Bifurcation Coronary study: Old, New, and Evolving strategies’), and others…
