Physiology & Behavior
Physiology & Behavior is aimed at the causal physiological mechanisms of behavior and its modulation by environmental factors. The journal invites original reports in the broad area of behavioral and cognitive neuroscience, where the interaction of physiology and behavior is the prerequisite for all published material. The range of subjects includes behavioral neuroendocrinology, psychoneuroimmunolog... learning and memory, ingestion, taste, social behavior, exercise (as it relates to behavior), studies related to the mechanisms of psychopathology and studies using animal models with the purpose of translating the findings to humans. Purely pharmacological studies (either using natural compounds or synthetic chemicals), studies on improving human performance beyond physiological adaptations, or studies on improving livestock production are not in the focus of the Journal.We also welcome contemporary reviews and theoretical articles, and the Editors invite such proposals from interested authors. Thematic issues and more comprehensive studies are also considered for publication, subject to the same review standards and process. All articles will be published in English.Benefits to authors We provide many author benefits, such as free PDFs, a liberal copyright policy, special discounts on Elsevier publications and much more.

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.

Journal of Insect Physiology
All aspects of insect physiology are published in this journal which will also accept papers on the physiology of other arthropods, if the referees consider the work to be of general interest. The coverage includes endocrinology (in relation to moulting, reproduction and metabolism), pheromones, neurobiology (cellular, integrative and developmental), physiological pharmacology, nutrition (food selection, digestion and absorption), homeostasis, excretion, reproduction and behaviour. Papers covering functional genomics and molecular approaches to physiological problems will also be included. Communications on structure and applied entomology can be published if the subject matter has an explicit bearing on the physiology of arthropods. Review articles and novel method papers are also welcomed.This journal is available at a special rate to members of the Entomological Society of America http://www.entsoc.or... to authors We also provide many author benefits, such as free PDFs, a liberal copyright policy, special discounts on Elsevier publications and much more.

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.

Genetics in Medicine
Genetics in Medicine (GIM) is an official journal of the American College of Medical Genetics and Genomics. The journal's mission is to enhance the knowledge, understanding, and practice of medical genetics and genomics through publications in clinical and laboratory genetics and genomics, including ethical, legal, and social issues as well as public health. As genetics and genomics continue to increase in importance and relevance in medical practice, the journal is an accessible and authoritative resource for the dissemination of medical genetic knowledge to all medical providers through appropriate original research, reviews, commentaries, standards, and guidelines. GIM encourages research that combats racism, includes diverse populations and is written by authors from diverse and underrepresented backgrounds.In addition:GIM does not publish case reportsManuscripts reporting population level research carried out in predominantly or exclusively White populations will generally not be accepted without strong justification for lack of diversity in the population studied.The significance of articles reporting data and/or observations from a limited geographic region is evaluated in the context of whether they are generalizable across relevant populations or whether they might fill a knowledge gap in populations that are underrepresented in genetics research or that experience health disparities.Although cancer genetics is a focus, GIM discourages cancer genetics manuscripts with data limited to somatic and/or tumor genetics. Manuscripts with novel findings on non-germline genetics (for example, somatic [tumor] variation, CHIP [clonal hematopoiesis of indeterminate potential], somatic and constitutional mosaicism) that inform our understanding of germline risk may also be considered. Manuscripts reporting on circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) or "liquid biopsy" are also generally not within the scope of GIM.Manuscripts should not contain previously published material without appropriate permission.GWAS studies are generally low priority for GIM.
