Top Neuroscience Journals

Nature Neuroscience: Publishes content that elaborates on significant advances in neuroscience and cover topical issues.

NeuronOne of the most influential and relied upon journals in the field of neuroscience. It integrates biophysical, cellular, developmental, and molecular approaches with a systems approach to sensory, motor, and higher-order cognitive functions. 

Brain: Publishes landmark papers in clinical neurology and translational neuroscience since 1878.

GLIAPublishes articles dealing with all aspects of glial structure and function.

Translational Stroke Research: Covers basic, translational, and clinical studies. It emphasizes novel approaches in order to help translate scientific discoveries from basic stroke research into the development of new strategies for prevention, assessment, treatment, and repair after stroke and other forms of neurotrauma.

Journal of Cerebral Blood Flow and Metabolism: The official journal of the International Society for Cerebral Blood Flow & Metabolism. It stands at the interface between basic and clinical neurovascular research, featuring experimental, theoretical, and clinical aspects of brain circulation, metabolism and imaging. 

Journal of NeuroscienceA multidisciplinary journal that publishes on a broad range of topics realted to thenervous system. 

Journal of Neurotrauma: A biweekly medical journal covering neurotraumas. The official journal of the National Neurotrauma Society and the International Neurotrauma Society. Focuses on the basic pathobiology of injury to the central nervous system.

Brain Research: Publishes papers reporting interdisciplinary investigations of the nervous system. Its scope is broad, ranging from cellular and molecular studies through systems neuroscience, cognition, and disease.

Experimental Neurology: Publishes original research in neuroscience with particular emphasis on novel findings in neural development, regeneration, plasticity and transplantation. Focuses on the basic mechanisms underlying neurological disorders.

Directions to the Stacks

1) Go to the 2nd floor of Richter Library

2) If you're coming from the elevators go to your right. If you're coming from the stairs go straight toward the elevators across and take a left.

3) Look for the sign that says "Stacks Elevators" down the hall.

Neuroscience Websites

The Society for Neuroscience: The Society for Neuroscience is an organization of scientists and physicians devoted to understanding the brain and nervous system. Great for Neuroscience news, updates, and more!

The National Institute for Neurological Disorders and Stroke: The National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke is an Institute within the NIH (National Institutes of Health). The mission of NINDS is to seek fundamental knowledge about the brain and nervous system and to use that knowledge to reduce the burden of neurological disease. Great for news, updates, and information on neurological disorders and stroke. 

The Miami Project to Cure Paralysis: The Miami Project to Cure Paraylsis is the premier investigative research program conducting cutting edge discovery, translational, and clinical investigations targeting spinal cord and brain injuries.  The Miami Project has changed the landscape of knowledge and therapeutic strategies for spinal cord and traumatic brain injury.

History of Neuroscience

"History of Neuroscience" by Mitchell Glickstein, 2008: An article with a thorough overview on major neuroscience scientific developments and the history of the field. This review traces the history of neuroscience from its origins to recent times.

"History of the Society for Neuroscience":  History of the creation and effects of the Society for Neuroscience. This is a story of how SfN created unity out of an enormous diversity of approaches and disciplinary traditions and a complicated narrative that involves numerous individuals, institutions, new technologies, new biological discoveries, and changing social, economic, and political contexts.

"Early History of Neuroscience" by Charles G. Gross, 1987: This article outlines some of the major developments in our understanding of nerve and brain function before the middle of the 19th century.
