Neuropsychologia
Neuropsychologia is an international interdisciplinary journal devoted to experimental and theoretical contributions that advance understanding of human cognition and behavior from a neuroscience perspective. The journal will consider for publication studies that directly link brain function with cognitive processes, including perception, attention and consciousness, action and motor control, executive functions and cognitive control, memory, language, and emotion and social cognition. Submission of papers using methodologies such as functional and structural neuroimaging, cognitive electrophysiology, and brain stimulation to significantly advance cognitive and psychological theory is strongly encouraged.Neuropsyc... has a long history of publishing lesion-deficit studies, and these remain highly appropriate for the journal. Animal studies are also welcome, provided they have a direct and explicitly specified impact on understanding the brain basis of human cognition and behavior. Studies that employ a purely behavioral approach in neurologically healthy participants are not appropriate for the journal unless the findings have a direct and significant bearing on the understanding of the neural mechanisms or systems supporting cognition and behavior. Studies of clinical populations that are primarily descriptive or intended to elucidate a clinical disorder, or that evaluate a therapeutic intervention, are not appropriate for the journal. Special issues and Review Papers are published regularly with the aim of providing authoritative surveys of topics of major interest.

Neuroscience Letters
Neuroscience Letters is devoted to the rapid publication of high-quality articles of interest to the broad community of neuroscientists. Only articles which will make a significant addition to the literature in the field will be published.Manuscript... in all areas of neuroscience, including molecular, cellular, developmental, systems, behavioral, cognitive, and computational will be considered for publication. Specific topics of interest include (but are not limited to):Neurons and gliaNervous system development and structureExcitable membranesSynaptic transmissionSensory and motor systemsPain - central and peripheral mechanismsAutonomic regulationDisorders of the nervous systemBehaviorCentra... nervous system (CNS) imagingSubmission of laboratory investigations that shed light on normal structure and function of the nervous system or on disease mechanisms are equally encouraged. Clinical studies will also be considered if they provide new information about organization or actions of the nervous system, or provide new insights into the neurobiology of disease. Neuroscience Letters does not publish Case Reports, Meta-analyses, or Literature Reviews in either the basic or clinical sciences.Special Issues, edited by Guest Editors to cover new and rapidly-moving areas, will include invited Mini-Reviews as well as related articles submitted in the regular manner. Standard Mini-Reviews are by invitation, or in response to the Editor-in-Chief's approval of a pre-submission enquiry.

Seizure: European Journal of Epilepsy
Seizure - European Journal of Epilepsy is an international journal owned by Epilepsy Action (the largest member led epilepsy organisation in the UK). It provides a forum for papers on all topics related to epilepsy and seizure disorders.Seizure focuses especially on clinical and psychosocial aspects, but will publish papers on the basic sciences related to the condition itself, the differential diagnosis, natural history and epidemiology of seizures, as well as the investigation and practical management of seizure disorders (including drug treatment, neurosurgery and non-medical or behavioural treatments).The journal reflects the social and psychological burden and impact of the condition on people with epilepsy, their families and society at large, and the methods and ideas that may help to alleviate the disability and stigma, which the condition may cause. The journal aims to share and disseminate knowledge between all disciplines that work in the field of epilepsy.

Journal of Neuroimmunology
The Journal of Neuroimmunology affords a forum for the publication of works on all branches of the neurosciences with the scope of uncovering aspects of neuro-immune interactions. Specific areas of interest are related (but not exclusive) to neuroinflammatory, neurodegenerative, neuroinfectious, and psychiatric diseases, peripheral neuropathies, spinal cord injury, neuroimaging, studies on central nervous systems (CNS) barriers and lymphatics, brain cancer, role of innate and adaptive immunity, and the gut microbiome in CNS health and diseases.The scope of the Journal is broad, covering both research and clinical problems of neuroscientific interest giving priorities to cutting edge and novel work.A major aim of the Journal is to encourage the development of approaches to analyze in depth the neuroimmune system and interactions between the nervous and immune systems.
