Journal of Pharmacological Sciences

Aims & Scope

Journal of Pharmacological Sciences (JPS) is an international open access journal intended for the advancement of pharmacological sciences in the world.

The Journal welcomes submissions in all fields of experimental and clinical pharmacology, including neuroscience, and biochemical, cellular, and molecular pharmacology for publication as Reviews, Full Papers or Short Communications.

Short Communications are short research article intended to provide novel and exciting pharmacological findings.

Manuscripts concerning descriptive case reports, pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic studies without pharmacological mechanism and dose-response determinations are not acceptable and will be rejected without peer review.

The ethnopharmacological studies are also out of the scope of this journal.

Furthermore, JPS does not publish work on the actions of biological extracts unknown chemical composition.
