Brain Mechanisms
AimsBrain Mechanisms is dedicated to advancing the boundaries of neuroscience by providing a comprehensive platform for the dissemination of cutting-edge research on the dynamic processes underlying brain function and dysfunction. Our mission is to foster a deeper understanding of the intricate mechanisms of nervous systems through high-quality, integrative, and transdisciplinary research. We aim to bridge gaps across various levels of explanation, from molecular and cellular interactions during development to complex behavioral and cognitive functions, including emotional regulation and consciousness. By doing so, we pave the way for breakthroughs in the diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of brain disorders.ScopeBrain Mechanisms welcomes original research articles, reviews, short communications, and methodological papers that explore the following areas:- Neuroimaging and Neurophysiology: Studies employing advanced imaging and recording techniques to reveal the structure and function of nervous systems.- Experimental Neuropathology: Studies employing models to elucidate physiology and pathophysiology of disease mechanisms of nervous systems.- Molecular and Cellular Neuroscience: Research on the molecular and cellular mechanisms that underlie neural function, including synaptic transmission, neural plasticity, and signal transduction.- Genetics and Genomics: Investigations into the genetic and genomic basis of neural development, function, and disorders, including studies using various omics technologies.- Behavioral and Cognitive Neuroscience: Research on the neural basis of behavior and cognition, including studies on learning, memory, emotion, consciousness, and decision-making.- Computational Neuroscience: The application of computational models and simulations to understand neural processes and predict behavior.- Neuroinformatics and Big Data: Studies leveraging big data and bioinformatics approaches to integrate and interpret complex neuroscience datasets.- Transdisciplinary Approaches: Collaborative research that integrates perspectives from molecular biology, psychology, computational sciences, and other disciplines to address complex questions in neuroscience, such as human speech, linguistic and symbolic abilities, and tool use.- Neuroscience and AI: Research on the application of artificial intelligence and machine learning technologies to neuroscience, including studies on brain-machine interfaces and neuroprosthetics.- Clinical Neuroscience: Studies on the mechanisms underlying neurological disorders, including research on biomarkers, therapeutic targets, novel compounds and treatment strategies.Brain Mechanisms upholds the highest standards of scientific rigor and integrity. Our editorial board comprises distinguished researchers who bring diverse expertise and perspectives to ensure the quality and impact of the journal. We are committed to fostering scientific excellence, encouraging inter- and transdisciplinary collaboration, and driving the field of neuroscience forward.We invite researchers from all areas of neuroscience and related fields to submit their work to Brain Mechanisms. Together, we will explore the complexities of nervous systems and shape the future of neuroscience research, to the benefit of all life forms and beyond.- ISSN: 0891-0618

Psychoneuroendocrinology
The Official Journal of the International Society of Psychoneuroendocri... publishes papers dealing with the interrelated disciplines of psychology, neurobiology, endocrinology, immunology, neurology, and psychiatry, with an emphasis on multidisciplinary studies aiming at integrating these disciplines in terms of either basic research or clinical implications. One of the main goals is to understand how a variety of psychobiological factors interact in the expression of the stress response as it relates to the development and/or maintenance of neuropsychiatric illnesses. The journal is international and comprises original research papers, reviews of an area of the literature, or at an appropriate stage in the development of the author's own work, commentaries in areas of current interest, short communications and book reviews. Although reviews, editorials and commentaries are usually by invitation, interested authors can contact the Editor-in-Chief to discuss the suitability of topics for either category of manuscripts.Authors are also welcome to submit their manuscripts to the journal's open access companion title, Comprehensive Psychoneuroendocrino... .- ISSN: 0306-4530

Psychiatry Research: Neuroimaging
The Official Publication of the International Society for Neuroimaging in Psychiatry Psychiatry Research: Neuroimaging, a companion title to Psychiatry Research, focuses on publications relating to imaging techniques. We publish manuscripts on magnetic resonance imaging, positron emission tomography, multichannel electrophysiology, near-infrared spectroscopy, computed tomography, magnetoencephalograp... non-invasive brain stimulation, autoradiography, post-mortem regional analyses, and other imaging techniques. Reports concerning results in neuropsychiatric disorders and psychopathology and the effects of behavioral tasks, neurobiological-, psychotherapy-, and pharmacological treatments are featured. We also invite manuscripts on the methods of obtaining images and computer processing of the images themselves. Reviews, meta-analysis and selected case reports are also published.- ISSN: 0925-4927

Journal of Psychiatric Research
Founded in 1961 to report on the latest work in psychiatry and cognate disciplines, the Journal of Psychiatric Research is dedicated to innovative and timely studies of four important areas of research:(1) Clinical studies of all disciplines relating to psychiatric illness, as well as normal human behaviour, including biochemical, physiological, genetic, environmental, social, psychological and epidemiological factors;(2) Basic studies pertaining to psychiatry in such fields as neuropsychopharmacol... neuroendocrinology, electrophysiology, genetics, experimental psychology and epidemiology;(3) The growing application of clinical laboratory techniques in psychiatry, including imagery and spectroscopy of the brain, molecular biology and computer sciences;(4) Advances in basic and clinical research methodology, including the process of "bench-to-bedside" transfer of new research findings.The Editors-in-Chief will accept papers of high scientific caliber, if necessary after appropriate revision, and will aim for their rapid publication. In addition, the Journal will be enhanced by the inclusion of commissioned reviews, news items, book notices and letters to the Editors.- ISSN: 0022-3956
