Journal of Neurophysiology

Last updated

Types of manuscripts published

The Journal of Neurophysiology publishes research reports of any length, review articles, Rapid Reports, Innovative Methodology reports, Case Studies in Neuroscience, and NeuroForums (brief commentaries on recent articles authored by graduate and postdoctoral students). [4] Review article topics must be approved by the editor-in-chief prior to submission of the article. Rapid Reports are short papers presenting important new findings that could potentially have a major impact on the field. Rapid Reports submissions receive expedited peer review, and if accepted are highlighted on the journal's website Archived 2017-11-23 at the Wayback Machine . NeuroForum submissions must meet strict guidelines, and it is recommended that articles that are examined in NeuroForum submissions are pre-approved by the editor-in-chief. [5] Case Studies in Neuroscience provides a forum for human or animal subjects studies that cannot be replicated experimentally (e.g., they report the neurological effects of a rare disease), but provide unique insights into mechanisms of neural function (either at the cellular or systems level). Clinical case studies are not appropriate for this category, and authors are encouraged to consult with the Editor-in-Chief to determine if their manuscript qualifies for submission as Case Studies in Neuroscience.
