International Journal of Developmental Neuroscience

期刊简介：International Journal of Developmental Neuroscience publishes original research articles and critical review papers on all fundamental and clinical aspects of nervous system development, renewal and regeneration, as well as on the effects of genetic and environmental perturbations of brain development and homeostasis leading to neurodevelopmental disorders and neurological conditions. Studies describing the involvement of stem cells in nervous system maintenance and disease (including brain tumours), stem cell-based approaches for the investigation of neurodegenerative diseases, roles of neuroinflammation in development and disease, and neuroevolution are also encouraged. Investigations using molecular, cellular, physiological, genetic and epigenetic approaches in model systems ranging from simple invertebrates to human iPSC-based 2D and 3D models are encouraged, as are studies using experimental models that provide behavioural or evolutionary insights. The journal also publishes Special Issues dealing with topics at the cutting edge of research edited by Guest Editors appointed by the Editor in Chief. A major aim of the journal is to facilitate the transfer of fundamental studies of nervous system development, maintenance, and disease to clinical applications. The journal thus intends to disseminate valuable information for both biologists and physicians. International Journal of Developmental Neuroscience is owned and supported by The International Society for Developmental Neuroscience (ISDN), an organization of scientists interested in advancing developmental neuroscience research in the broadest sense.

【译文】国际发育神经科学杂志发表关于神经系统发育、更新和再生的所有基本和临床方面的原创研究文章和评论性论文，以及关于遗传和环境干扰对大脑发育和稳态的影响，导致神经发育障碍和神经系统疾病的研究。鼓励描述干细胞在神经系统维持和疾病（包括脑肿瘤）中的作用的研究，基于干细胞的方法用于研究神经退行性疾病，神经炎症在发育和疾病中的作用，以及神经进化。鼓励使用分子、细胞、生理、遗传和表观遗传方法在从简单无脊椎动物到基于人类iPSC的2D和3D模型的人类模型系统中进行研究，以及使用提供行为或进化洞察力的实验模型的研究。该杂志还发表由总编辑任命的客座编辑编辑的关于研究前沿主题的特别问题。该杂志的主要目标是促进神经系统发育、维持和疾病的基础研究向临床应用的转化。因此，该杂志旨在向生物学家和医生传播有价值的信息。国际发育神经科学杂志由国际发育神经科学学会（ISDN）拥有和支持，该学会是一个致力于在广泛意义上推进发育神经科学研究科学家的组织。
