Aim and Scope

The Journal of Research in Neural Sciences is dedicated to advancing knowledge and innovation across the broad and multidisciplinary field of neural sciences. The journal provides a platform for researchers, clinicians, neuroscientists, healthcare professionals, and allied scientists to share original research, clinical studies, reviews, perspectives, and emerging discoveries that contribute to a deeper understanding of the nervous system in health and disease.

The journal welcomes basic, translational, and clinical research covering the molecular, cellular, physiological, computational, behavioral, cognitive, and clinical aspects of neural sciences. It aims to promote the translation of fundamental discoveries into improved approaches for understanding, preventing, diagnosing, and managing neurological and neuropsychiatric conditions.

Through high-quality peer-reviewed publications, the Journal of Research in Neural Sciences seeks to foster interdisciplinary collaboration, encourage innovative research, bridge basic science with clinical applications, and contribute to advances in neurological and brain health worldwide.
