Neurorehabilitation and Neural Repair

Aims & Scope

The Journal will consider for publication original articles and reviews on both basic science and clinical research relevant to recovery from neural injury.

Examples of appropriate topics include cortical remodeling, mechanisms of sprouting and regeneration, the development of cell lines for transplantation and trophic factor replacement, strategies to promote functional recovery in human patients, design of outcome measures in neurologic rehabilitation, the multidisciplinary management of neurologic disease, and bioengineering and assistive devices used in the management of neurologic impairment.
