New Journal: Developmental Cognitive Neuroscience
Edited by Sarah-Jayne Blakemore (University College London), Ronald E. Dahl (University of Pittsburgh Medical Center), Uta Frith (University College London) and Daniel S. Pine (NIMH). The journal will publish theoretical and research papers on cognitive brain development, from infancy through childhood and adolescence to old age. It will cover neurocognitive development and neurocognitive processing in both typical and atypical development, including social and affective aspects. Appropriate methodologies for the journal will include, but are not limited to, functional neuroimaging (fMRI and MEG), electrophysiology (EEG and ERP), NIRS and transcranial magnetic stimulation, as well as other neuroscience approaches which are applied in animal studies, patient studies, case studies, post-mortem studies and pharmacological studies. Authors will be able to submit papers for review from early 2010.
