We publish original research articles and reviews in all the domains of neuroscience including molecular (including neurochemistry and neuropharmacology), cellular, developmental, systems, behavioural, cognitive and computational neuroscience.  The key aim of work published in EJN is that it furthers our understanding of the nervous system in health and disease. In our pursuit of reproducibility in science, we also welcome Registered Reports and encourage submissions that report negative results and those that replicate or fail to replicate previous studies.
Submitted papers are handled by a diverse and inclusive international editorial team of outstanding experts in their respective fields that represent all aspects of neuroscience.  Papers are rapidly, rigorously and fairly peer reviewed by international experts on our Board of Reviewing Editors and other members of the international community.  We never reject papers on the basis of what is considered to be ‘fashionable in neuroscience’. All papers of sufficient scientific quality are carefully considered by the Editors and submitted for review. Accepted articles are published online within a few days of acceptance. The review process is transparent in that all review documents are published as supplementary materials to the paper.
