Complex Psychiatry

Aims & Scope

Complex Psychiatry is a peer-reviewed, rapid communication journal that focuses on the complexity of psychiatry and human behavior considering a wide range of methods – including genomics, epigenomics, transcriptomics, proteomics, metabolomics, pharmacogenomics, bioinformatics, molecular neuropharmacology, neural circuits, neural stem cells, and systems neurobiology in humans, and in animal and cellular model systems.

The journal publishes original research articles and reviews that shed light onto the biology of psychiatric illness and complex behavioral traits.

Submitted papers will be subject to an editorial review, and a decision whether to further peer review will be made in approximately 5 business days.

We aim to have an initial review decision within 1 month.

Simultaneous BioRxiv submission is strongly encouraged.
