Description
For over twenty five years, TINS has been among the leading current awareness journals in basic neurosciences
(Impact Factor, 14.475), publishing succinct and readable articles in a monthly magazine format. The field of neuroscience has a relentless
stream of exciting new developments, but with our short Reviews, Opinions (review-length articles, but more progressive
and forward-looking) and our shorter Research Focus articles, keeping abreast of the latest ideas is easy. Aimed at researchers,
students and teachers, our articles are always authoritative, written by both leaders in the field and rising stars.
Articles for
TINS are generally invited by the Editor, but unsolicited proposals for articles will sometimes be considered. Prospective authors should
prepare a point-by-point outline of their intended manuscript, citing 10-12 key references that illustrate both why you would be our
first author of choice to cover the topic, as well as those that breadth and balance of the proposed article.
This proposal can be
sent to an appropriate member of the Advisory Editorial Board or to the Editor, who will supply guidelines on manuscript preparation
if the proposal is accepted. Completed articles sent without prior consultation will not be considered.
Briefly, TINS reviews are
'mini-reviews' (2500-3000 words in length) that present an update from a broad, multidisciplinary standpoint on an exciting recent development.
To complement this 'overview' approach, we encourage the use of summary schematics and diagrams instead of primary data.
Note: all
articles in TINS are peer reviewed, and publication cannot be guaranteed. TINS is not a primary publication, and thus cannot consider
manuscripts that include unpublished data (meta-analysis, unless it has appeared previously in a peer-reviewed journal, is considered
as primary data).

Ethics in Publishing: General Statement
The Editor(s)
and Publisher of this Journal believe that there are fundamental principles underlying scholarly or professional publishing. While this
may not amount to a formal 'code of conduct', these fundamental principles with respect to the authors' paper are that the paper should:
i) be the authors' own original work, which has not been previously published elsewhere, ii) reflect the authors' own research and analysis
and do so in a truthful and complete manner, iii) properly credit the meaningful contributions of co-authors and co-researchers, iv)
not be submitted to more than one journal for consideration, and v) be appropriately placed in the context of prior and existing research.
Of equal importance are ethical guidelines dealing with research methods and research funding, including issues dealing with informed
consent, research subject privacy rights, conflicts of interest, and sources of funding. While it may not be possible to draft a 'code'
that applies adequately to all instances and circumstances, we believe it useful to outline our expectations of authors and procedures
that the Journal will employ in the event of questions concerning author conduct. With respect to conflicts of interest, the Publisher
now requires authors to declare any conflicts of interest that relate to papers accepted for publication in this Journal. A conflict
of interest may exist when an author or the author's institution has a financial or other relationship with other people or organizations
that may inappropriately influence the author's work. A conflict can be actual or potential and full disclosure to the Journal is the
safest course. All submissions to the Journal must include disclosure of all relationships that could be viewed as presenting a potential
conflict of interest. The Journal may use such information as a basis for editorial decisions and may publish such disclosures if they
are believed to be important to readers in judging the manuscript. A decision may be made by the Journal not to publish on the basis
of the declared conflict.
