Pediatric Neurosurgery publishes new information and observations in pediatric neurosurgery, neurology, neuroradiology, and neuropathology. The focus is on the etiology of neurological diseases, the operative care of affected patients, and outcomes research. In addition to experimental and clinical studies, the journal presents critical reviews on selected topics as well as case histories and reports on advances in surgical technique. This thought-provoking approach encourages the dissemination of information from neurosurgeons and neuroscientists around the world. Published materials are of interest to both researchers and clinicians who study and care for patients with pediatric, congenital, and developmental diseases of the nervous system.

The journal is aimed at psychiatrists and neurologists as well as scientists specialising in other related areas: basic and clinical research, and humanities. It publishes basic and clinical studies from the following areas:
biochemistry,
physiology,
genetics,
psychological and social determinants of human behaviour in the field of:
neuropharmocology,
neurochemistry,
neuroendocrinology,
electrophysiology,
psychology,
genetics,
brain imaging.

The journal publishes original papers, review articles, case reports, clinical observations and - at the initiative of the Editorial Board - essays and reflections on current theoretical and practical controversies.

Articles submitted to the journal are evaluated first by the Section Editors, specialists in the fields of psychiatry, clinical psychology, science of the brain and mind and neurology, and reviewed by acknowledged authorities in the respective field. Authors and reviewers remain anonymous to each other.

Post281;y Psychiatrii i Neurologii - Advances in Psychiatry and Neurology is an official journal of the Institute of Psychiatry and Neurology in Warsaw.

The essential point of Practical Neurology is that it is practical in the sense of being useful for everyone who sees neurological patients and who wants to keep up to date, and safe, in managing them. In other words this is a journal for jobbing neurologists who plough through the tension headaches and funny turns week in and week out.
