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.
