 ALL TIME TOP 10 BY F1000 FACTOR | Public Health & Epidemiology | calculated on 9 January 2009

All Time Top 10 By F1000 Factors are generated every day using papers added to F1000 Medicine since the project started (Top 10s consider papers evaluated in the preceding month). Papers are ranked according to their F1000 Factor which incorporates both the number of times a paper has been evaluated, and the ratings it received. If any papers have an equal F1000 Factor then the most recently added paper is listed first.
