Brain Research Bulletin
The Brain Research Bulletin (BRB) aims to publish novel work that advances our knowledge of cellular and molecular mechanisms that underlie neural network properties associated with brain function and behavior and plastic changes occurring in the healthy nervous system or that is linked to neurological and neuropsychiatric diseases. The BRB is especially interested in studies investigating in vivoneural functions using novel methodologies, such as optogenetics, multielectrode array recordings and life imaging. Although clinical research is out of the Journal's scope, the BRB is interested in publishing translation research that provides insight into biological mechanisms and processes affected in disease, such as the use of animal models for neurological and neuropsychiatric disorders. Accordingly, studies on drugs with novel targets and actions are also of interest.Manuscripts should use a combination of experimental approaches to address at least two of the general areas aforementioned; research that is exclusively descriptive in nature will not be considered for publication. For example, manuscripts describing changes in RNA or protein expression patterns alone are not appropriate for publication but can be considered if they include experiments that investigate the function of those proteins or how changes in their expression levels may be related to behavior, plasticity or neurotransmission. In addition, studies that exclusive report on the association of genetic polymorphism with disease, but fail to include additional experiments demonstrating alterations in the gene's expression or to address potential biological mechanisms relevant to the disease, will not be viewed favorably by the Journal.Brain Research Bulletin offers simple electronic submission, accelerated peer-review, rapid publication and high quality color production with no expense to authors. Section Editors are committed to work closely with authors to provide constructive assistance to enhance visibility and impact of published articles.US National Institutes of Health (NIH) voluntary posting ("Public Access") policyBrain Research Bulletin and Elsevier facilitate the author's response to the NIH Public Access Policy.

Journal of Maps
©2015 Thomson Reuters, 2014 Journal Citation Reports®
The Journal of Maps is a peer-reviewed, inter-disciplinary, online journal that aims to provide a forum for researchers to publish maps and spatial diagrams.
Scope
In its broadest sense, the Journal of Maps ( JoM ) is concerned with social and physical processes that take place on a geographical scale. Topics could include, for example, footfall in retail marketing, the spread of bird flu or location of geological faults, the common theme being the use of maps or spatial diagrams to advance understanding. Maps submitted MUST make a substantial contribution to knowledge in the field that is likely to be of broad interest to readers of the journal. Above all, to be published in the JoM is to demonstrate a unique line of enquiry which has required the use of maps or spatial diagrams, to have collected new data or added significant value to existing data and to present and communicate the findings adhering to high cartographic standards.
Origins
The JoM has its origins back in the geological and geographical journals of the late-1800s and early 1900s. The investigative research during this period was based strongly around fieldwork and the observation of phenomena. After observation, interpretation could be applied and then presented at a society meeting. The "proceedings" of these lectures were then published, often with extra plates of photographs and maps of the original fieldwork. As a result of the these early pioneers, we now have a permanent record of this work which can be referred back to. This is important as we not only have the interpretive conclusions, but also the original data upon which the work was based. The JoM therefore seeks to offer a forum for academics to present the geospatial products of their research.Multi-Disciplinary and International
As a discipline, "geography" traditionally covers a wide range of subject areas due to it's spatial nature. Maps and mapping science were often incorporated within geography, however spatial data are now widely used in many disciplines. JoM is intentionally multi-disciplinary and wants to draw upon, and present, work from all subject areas. Not only has this built an increasing archive of mapped data for future researchers to draw upon, but also fosters inter-disciplinary contexts.
