It contributes to the development of theory, evidence, and the effective use of physical therapy for individuals with neurologic conditions. It combines original research with integration and interpretation from diverse areas of study. Readers will find articles on examination, evaluation, prognosis, intervention, and outcomes that span the continuum from pathophysiology to ability.

To communicate unique or unusual clinical cases encountered across the fields of neurosurgery and skull base surgery.

The Journal of Neurology is an international peer-reviewed journal which officially represents the European Neurological Society and provides a source for publishing original communications and reviews on clinical neurology and related basic research in neuroscience.
Commentaries on new developments in clinical neuroscience, which may be commissioned or submitted, are published as editorials. Letters to the Editors serve as a forum for the exchange of ideas or clinical cases which highlight important new findings. A section on Medical progress serves to summarise the major findings in certain fields of neurology, as illustrated by recent articles published in the Journal. News sections provide information on the development of neurological medicine, society news, and reports on recent congresses. Every neurologist interested in the field of organic neurological disease needs access to the information contained in this valuable journal.

JNNP's ambition is to publish the most ground-breaking and cutting-edge research from around the world. Encompassing the entire genre of neurological sciences, our focus is on the common disorders (stroke, multiple sclerosis, Parkinson's disease, epilepsy, peripheral neuropathy, subarachnoid haemorrhage and neuropsychiatry), but with a keen interest in the Gordian knots that present themselves in the field, such as ALS. With early online publication, regular podcasts and an immense archive collection (with the longest half-life of any journal in clinical neuroscience), JNNP is a trail-blazer and not a follower. Subscribers to JNNP also have access to Practical Neurology and the Journal of NeuroInterventional Surgery.

Authoritative Guidance: As the world's senior neuropathology journal and the official journal of the American Association of Neuropathologists, Inc., JNEN has the prestige required to attract contributions from the world's most prominent researchers.Highest Production Standards: The finest quality of photographic illustrations is attained through the use of 300-line halftone technology8212;the highest standard for photographic reproduction in the printing industry8212;resulting in remarkably sharp, clear micrographs. And more: A review article focusing on a current topic in neuropathology is featured monthly, and book reviews, editorials, and letters-to-the-editor appear regularly. Abstracts from the annual meeting of the American Association of Neuropathologists, Inc. are printed in the May issue.

Die Zeitschrift ist das deutschsprachige Publikationsorgan für Beiträge aus neuropsychologischer Forschung und Praxis. Zugleich ist sie das Organ der (deutschen) Gesellschaft für Neuropsychologie und der Gesellschaft für NeuroPsychologie Österreich.In der Zeitschrift für Neuropsychologie werden aktuelle Forschungsergebnisse sowie Reviewartikel aus dem Bereich der experimentellen und klinischen Neuropsychologie sowie angrenzender Gebiete (z.B. Biologische Psychologie, Neurologie, Neuropsychiatrie, Neuropsychopharmakologie, Rehabilitationspsychologie) publiziert. Die Beiträge sollen gleichgewichtet sowohl die human- und tierexperimentelle Grundlagenforschung, als auch die klinische Forschung und die klinische Praxis berücksichtigen. Der klinische Schwerpunkt liegt auf der Diagnostik und Rehabilitation von kognitiven und affektiven Störungen, wie z.B. von Aufmerksamkeit, Gedächtnis, Planen und Problemlösen, Sensomotorik, Wahrnehmung, Emotionalität und Sozialverhalten.Zeitschrift für Neuropsychologie ist gelistet in Science Citation Index Expanded (SCIE), Neuroscience Citation Index, Journal Citation Reports/Science Edition, Scopus, PsycINFO, PSYNDEX und PsyJOURNALS.

The Journal of Neuroradiology is well established among other journals in the fields of neuroradiology, radiology and clinical neurosciences that provide precise and rigorous information on diagnostic and interventional neuroradiology. Indeed, the Journal offers an opportunity to submit original articles, reviews, technical notes and letters to the editors (correspondence section) in English language provided that the methodology and scientific content are of good quality, and that the results will have substantial clinical impact and/or physiological importance. Over the past three years, the impact factor of the Journal has been consistently above 1.000 (1.203 in 2010). The new Editorial Board will continue working to increase the impact of the Journal in the field of neuroradiology and, more generally, the clinical neurosciences. To further increase the Journal's impact and to make its full content even more widely accessible, the decision was taken to exclusively accept peer-reviewed papers in English from now on (see guide to authors). Considering English as the official language of the Journal of Neuroradiology means that contributions in the area of neuroradiology will be easily accessible to all neuroradiologists around the world. Another change is that case reports will no longer be accepted for publication from May 1st, 2012. However, as they may have an influence on our everyday clinical practices, a place will be provided for technical notes reporting on, for example, the improvement of currently used imaging sequences or new MR sequences, or novel approaches in the field of interventional neuroradiology. Nevertheless, to remain a major forum for the most up-to-date insights in the area of diagnostic and interventional neuroradiology, the Editorial team of the Journal of Neuroradiology invites you to submit on this website your high-quality and informative papers in order to make an important contribution to improve our clinical practice, and to communicate on novel concepts, methods and approaches.

The Journal of Neuroscience Nursing (JNN), the official journal of the American Association of Neuroscience Nurses, contains original articles on advances in neurosurgical and neurological techniques as they affect nursing care, theory and research, as well as commentary on the roles of the neuroscience nurse in the health care team. The journal provides information to nurses and health care professionals working in diverse areas of neuroscience patient care such as multi-specialty and neuroscience intensive care units, general neuroscience units, combination units (neuro/ortho, neuromuscular/rehabilitation, neuropsychiatry, neurogerontology), rehabilitation units, medical-surgical units, pediatric units, emergency and trauma departments, and surgery. The information is applicable to professionals working in clinical, research, administrative, and educational settings.JNN is a membership benefit to all AANN members.
