Research & Reviews: A Journal of Neuroscience

Research and Reviews: A Journal of Neuroscience [2277-6427(e)] is a peer-reviewed hybrid open access journal launched in 2011 and focused on the rapid publication of fundamental research papers on all areas of neurosciences. The scope of neuroscience has broadened to include different approaches used to study the molecular, cellular, developmental, structural, functional, evolutionary, computational, and medical aspects of the nervous system.

  • Cellular and Molecular Neuroscience: Neuron–glia communication, ion channels, receptors, and transporters, neurotransmitters and neuromodulators, intracellular signaling, transcriptional regulation, synaptogenesis, synaptic plasticity, neural degeneration and regeneration, molecular neurodegeneration.
  • Neuroanatomy: Microscopic and gross neuroanatomy, clinical and surgical anatomy, functional and developmental anatomy, comparative neuroanatomy, neuronal histology and ultrastructure, synapse structure.
  • Neurophysiology and Systems Neuroscience: Membrane physiology, systems and clinical electrophysiology, electroencephalography (EEG), sensory, somatosensory, and motor systems, neural circuits, cranial nerve function, neuronal asymmetry, plasticity and repair.
