The journal, Frontiers in Neuroscience, edited by Idan Segev, has made it Volume 3, issue 1. Launching last year at the Society for Neuroscience conference, its probably the newest Neuroscience-related journal.
I’m a fan of it because it is an open-access journal featuring a “tiered system” and more. From their website:
The Frontiers Journal Series is not just another journal. It is a new approach to scientific publishing. As service to scientists, it is driven by researchers for researchers but it also serves the interests of the general public. Frontiers disseminates research in a tiered system that begins with original articles submitted to Specialty Journals. It evaluates research truly democratically and objectively based on the reading activity of the scientific communities and the public. And it drives the most outstanding and relevant research up to the next tier journals, the Field Journals.
I’m a big fan of the variety of specialty journals they have:
- Aging Neuroscience
- Behavioral Neuroscience
- Cellular Neuroscience
- Computational Neuroscience
- Enteric Neuroscience
- Evolutionary Neuroscience
- Human Neuroscience
- Integrative Neuroscience
- Molecular Neuroscience
- Neural Circuits
- Neuroanatomy
- Neuroenergetics
- Neuroengineering
- Neurogenesis
- Neurogenomics
- Neuroinformatics
- Neuromethods
- Neuropharamacology
- Neuroprosthetics
- Neurorobotics
- Synaptic Neuroscience
- Systems Neuroscience
