Reviews in the Neurosciences

Aims & Scope

Reviews in the Neurosciences provides a forum for reviews, critical evaluations and theoretical treatment of selective topics in the neurosciences.

The journal is meant to provide an authoritative reference work for those interested in the structure and functions of the nervous system at all levels of analysis, including the genetic, molecular, cellular, behavioral, cognitive and clinical neurosciences.

Contributions should contain a critical appraisal of specific areas and not simply a compilation of published articles.

Readership includes: neurologists, psychiatrists, neuropharmacologists, neurochemists, neuro­physiologists, behavioral psychologists and pharmacologists, neuroanatomists and other interested physicians.
