Brain and Spine

期刊简介：Brain and Spine, the official scientific journal of the Spine Society of Europe (EUROSPINE) and European Association of Neurosurgical Societies (EANS), is a peer reviewed open access journal for scientific manuscripts concerned with pathophysiology, diagnostics, prevention, surgical and non-surgical interventions for structural pathological-anatomical alterations of the nervous system and axial skeleton. Brain and Spine accepts high quality papers from a wide variety of research areas, such as basic science at a molecular level, translational research and clinical epidemiology through to population health at a societal level. More specifically, the journal publishes papers that emphasize the fast growing biomedical fields of genomics, molecular sciences, biomechanical engineering, computer navigation and 3-D reconstruction techniques, experimental clinical research, as well as papers from the growing public health fields of clinical epidemiology, medical decision analysis, psychology, bio-ethics and prediction modelling at a population level. Although both scientific societies have a European origin, the journal's Editorial Team consists of experts from across the globe, with acclaimed knowledge in structural diseases of the nervous system and axial skeleton. In the biomedical arena of structural brain and spinal disorders Brain and Spine offers authors of all disciplines with brain and spine specialization, the possibility to submit manuscripts, describing original scientific studies, systematic reviews and "rare" case illustrations with the goal to add value to brain and spine patients care in near future.

【译文】《Brain and Spine》是欧洲脊柱学会 (EUROSPINE) 和欧洲神经外科学会 (EANS) 的官方科学期刊，是一份同行评审的开放获取期刊，收录与神经系统和中轴骨骼结构病理解剖改变的病理生理学、诊断、预防、手术和非手术干预相关的科学手稿。 《大脑与脊柱》接受来自各个研究领域的高质量论文，例如分子水平的基础科学、转化研究和临床流行病学，直至社会水平的人口健康。更具体地说，该杂志发表的论文强调基因组学、分子科学、生物力学工程、计算机导航和 3D 重建技术、实验临床研究等快速发展的生物医学领域，以及临床流行病学、医疗决策分析、心理学、生物伦理学和人口水平预测模型等不断发展的公共卫生领域的论文。尽管这两个科学协会都起源于欧洲，但该杂志的编辑团队由来自全球各地的专家组成，他们在神经系统和中轴骨骼的结构性疾病方面拥有广受好评的知识。在结构性大脑和脊柱疾病的生物医学领域，《大脑和脊柱》为所有脑和脊柱专业领域的作者提供了提交手稿、描述原始科学研究、系统评论和“罕见”案例插图的可能性，目标是在不久的将来为大脑和脊柱患者的护理增加价值。
