Neuroscience
Neuroscience is the official journal of the International Brain Research Organization (IBRO). Founded in 1976, Neuroscience is IBRO’s flagship journal and its profits support IBRO's numerous international initiatives for investigators at all career stages and the neuroscience community worldwide. Neuroscience publishes high-quality peer-reviewed articles on fundamental science, meta-analyses, clinical studies, and reviews focused on the scientific study of the central, peripheral, and enteric nervous systems. As an international, interdisciplinary journal, Neuroscience covers research in molecular, cellular, developmental, systems, behavioural, cognitive and computational neuroscience.Neurosc... and IBRO are committed to promoting diversity, equity, and inclusion in all aspects of the journal. We strongly encourage consideration of diversity in authorship teams and article references. Additionally, we require robust justification for the choice of sex and gender in cellular and animal models, as well as in patient inclusion/exclusion criteria in clinical trials or sample collection. Research areas include, but are not limited to:The central, peripheral, and enteric nervous systems, including neuroscience related to the brain, retina, spinal cord, and gut-brain axis.The neuroscience of physiological processes encompassing all life stages (development, adulthood, aging) and related to multiple conditions, including infection, memory, neuroimmunology, pain, addiction, reward, stress, and synaptic plasticity.Neurologi... diseases and disorders, such as Alzheimer’s disease, autism spectrum disorder, deafness, mood disorders, epilepsy, Huntington’s disease, Parkinson’s disease and stroke.Neuroinflamma... including the role of microglia, astrocytes, and other non-neuronal nervous system cell types. Neuroscience related to the understanding of cognition, emotion, and behaviour. Neuroscience-related techniques and technologies, including artificial intelligence, computational neuroscience, electrophysiology, optogenetics, and neural imaging. Neuroscience-related therapeutics, including pharmaceutical interventions, exercise, nutrition, neuroscience reprogramming, stem cell therapy, transcranial magnetic stimulation. Reviews: We welcome unsolicited reviews that offer new insights, perspectives, or opinions on a controversy or innovation in the field. Reviews that merely reiterate background information will not be accepted. Mendelian Randomization: While recognizing its value to the field, Neuroscience does not accept papers that use Mendelian Randomization as its only technique. Studies utilising this technique need to also incorporate a neuroscience-specifi... hypothesis, mechanistic investigation, experimental manipulation and / or substantive insights into neural function, structure, disease mechanisms, or behavior.- ISSN: 0306-4522
Pharmacology Biochemistry and Behavior
Pharmacology Biochemistry & Behavior publishes original reports in the areas of pharmacology and biochemistry in which the primary emphasis and theoretical context are behavioral. Contributions may involve clinical, preclinical, or basic research. Purely biochemical or toxicology studies will not be published.Papers describing the behavioral effects of novel drugs in models of psychiatric, neurological and cognitive disorders, and central pain must include a positive control unless the paper is on a disease where such a drug is not available yet.Papers focusing on physiological processes (e.g., peripheral pain mechanisms, body temperature regulation, seizure activity) are not accepted as we would like to retain the focus of Pharmacology Biochemistry & Behavior on behavior and its interaction with the biochemistry and neurochemistry of the central nervous system.Papers describing the effects of plant materials are generally not considered, unless the active ingredients are studied, the extraction method is well described, the doses tested are known, and clear and definite experimental evidence on the mechanism of action of the active ingredients is provided.- ISSN: 0091-3057

Comparative Biochemistry and Physiology - Part C: Toxicology & Pharmacology
Comparative Biochemistry & Physiology (CBP) publishes papers in comparative, environmental and evolutionary physiology.Part C: Toxicology and Pharmacology (CBPC), focuses on toxicological mechanisms at different levels of organization, primarily chemical and drug action, biotransformation of xenobiotics, endocrine disruptors, nanoparticles, pharmaceuticals, and natural products chemistry. Most studies employ a molecular approach in combination with observations of higher levels of organization to assess the mechanism by which xenobiotics affect physiology. Analytical verification of exposure concentrations is strongly recommended for manuscripts reporting toxicological studies.All four CBP journals support and follow the editorial direction from all the major societies in the field:Australia & New Zealand Society of Comparative Physiology and Biochemistry (ANZSCPB)American Physiological Society (APS)Canadian Society of Zoologists (CSZ)Deutsche Zoologische Gesellschaft (DZG)European Society of Comparative Physiology and Biochemistry (ESCPB)Japanese Society for Comparative Physiology and Biochemistry (JSCPB)South American Society for Comparative Physiology and Biochemistry (SASCPB)Societe de Physiologie (SDP)Society for Experimental Biology (SEB)Society for Integrative & Comparative Biology (SICB)CBP journals are focused on promoting the authors and the work published in the journal:All articles are carefully evaluated directly by the Editors-in-Chief who are leading experts in their field.Availability: contact the Editor-in-Chief for any questions you may have.The Journal will provide upon request free PDFs to all authors who may not have access to their articles via their institution or library.Publication is free to authors (no color or page charges).Supporting open access: if your funding body or institution requires your article to be open access, CBP offers that option.
