BRAIN STIMULATION aims to be the premier journal for publication of original research in the field of
neuromodulation. The journal includes: a) original articles (up to 5,000 words); b) brief reports (up to 2,000 words); c) invited and
original reviews; d) technology and methodological perspectives (reviews of new devices, description of new methods, etc.); and e) letters
to the Editor. Special issues of the journal will be considered based on scientific merit.
The scope of BRAIN STIMULATION extends
across the entire field of brain stimulation, including noninvasive and invasive techniques and technologies that alter brain function
through the use of electrical, magnetic, radiowave, or focally targeted pharmacologic stimulation. This includes investigations that
study the effects of brain stimulation on basic processes, such as gene expression and other aspects of molecular biology, neurochemical
regulation, functional brain activity, sensorimotor function, and cognitive and affective processes at the systems level.
The
journal seeks the highest level of research on the biophysics and biopsychophysics of stimulation paradigms as well as the use of these
techniques as a probe to outline patterns of neural connectivity. As an equal partner with this basic emphasis, the journal will have
strong representation of research on the therapeutic potential and adverse effects of the stimulation technologies. The inclusion of
research in therapeutics will represent not only clinical trials, but also conceptual pieces, discussions of ethics as they pertain to
this field, services research, etc.
