How it's organised

In the Faculty of 1000, the entire field of biology is divided into 16 Faculties (subjects), each of which will be run by two to four Heads of Faculty.

Each Faculty is subdivided into 3-12 Sections, each run by two or three Section Heads and comprising between 10 and 50 Faculty Members. Faculty of 1000 aims to invite the best scientists internationally in each field and to involve both experienced and younger investigators.

Each Faculty will have a contingent representative of the proportion of papers published in that discipline. In total, there will be approximately 1400 faculty members and 150 sections, each section representing a coherent community reflecting the way subscribers' interests might divide. Some sections will necessarily have to be cross-indexed between more than one Faculty.
