The European Journal of Neurology covers all areas of clinical and basic research in neurology. Emphasis is placed on major diseases or large clinical and socio-economic importance (dementia, stroke, epilepsy, headache, multiple sclerosis, movement disorders, and infectious diseases). The journal provides a forum for European activity in clinical neuroscience and medical practice and help strengthen the links between research workers and clinicians in Europe and other parts of the world. In addition to original papers, the journal publishes frequent review and update papers, letters to the editor, book reviews, reports and news. Important articles can be fast-tracked. The journal also publishes the official EFNS taskforce papers, and - in a new development - the journal now includes a CME (Continuing Medical Education) online feature (http://www.blackwellpublishing.com/products/journals/ene/mcqs/).

EJN publishes original research articles and reviews in the broad fields of molecular, cellular, systems, behavioral, and cognitive neurosciences. EJN aims to advance our understanding of the nervous system in health and disease, thereby improving the diagnosis and treatment of neuropsychiatric and neurodegenerative disorders. Papers should present novel results that can be of interest to a broad spectrum of neuroscientists and that were generated by experiments guided by clearly defined aims or hypotheses. Highly specialized articles that provide only limited new insights into the organization and function of the nervous system, or describe results too specialized for a generalist neuroscience journal may be considered outside the scope of EJN.
