Aims & Scope✦ Inferred from recent articles

This journal publishes novel methodologies for neuroscience research. Recent articles describe new techniques for analyzing behavioral data from animal models, including RFID tracking and eye rotation measurement. Other new methods focus on molecular and cellular analysis, such as multiplex immunofluorescence for neuron subtype identification and real-time PCR for tumor mutation detection. The journal also features advancements in neuroimaging analysis, including functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS) and transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) targeting, as well as computational modeling of brain connectivity.
