Springer

neurogenetics

Müller, U. (Ed), Graeber, M. B. (Ed), Ptacek, L. J. (Ed)

Neurogenetics publishes findings that contribute to a better understanding of the genetic basis of normal and abnormal function of the nervous system. Neurogenetic disorders are the main focus of the journal. Neurogenetics therefore includes findings in humans and other organisms that help understand neurological disease mechanisms and publishes papers from many different fields such as biophysics, cell biology, human genetics, neuroanatomy, neurochemistry, neurology, neuropathology, neurosurgery and psychiatry. All papers submitted to Neurogenetics should be of sufficient immediate importance to justify urgent publication. They should present new scientific results. Data merely confirming previously published findings are not acceptable. Neurogenetics is published in hardcopy and online. It includes Review Articles, Original Articles, Short Communications and Letters to the Editors.

Neuroradiology

Wilms, G. (Ed)

Official Journal of the European Society of Neuroradiology  Japanese Neuroradiological Society Austrian Society of Neuroradiology Belgian Society of Neuroradiology British Society of Neuroradiologists Bulgarian Association of Radiology Czech Neuroradiological Society Dutch Society of Neuroradiology Finnish Society of Neuroradiology ...

Dana’s top brain books

 

Dana Foundation’s list of books about the brain as of November 2010 on “the great books, past and present, that capture the unfolding story of the brain and how brain research is changing our ideas about memory and emotion, life span and language, neurological disorders and psychiatric syndromes.”

To draw out the best current and classic books from the crowded field, we selected 10 categories, based on our earlier list. Then we opened up a poll to Dana.org readers, asking them to nominate their favorites in as many of the categories as they wished.

The Great Brain Books, Revisited

By: Johanna Goldberg,  M.S.L.I.S.  11/10/10

1. General Books About the Brain

The Brain that Changes Itself: Stories of Personal Triumph from the Frontiers of Brain Science By Norman Doidge. Viking, 2007.

This book was far and away the most popular choice of Dana.org readers. Exploring the plasticity of the brain—something that was only recently proven to exist—Dr. Doidge uses case studies to discuss how people remember, recovery from injury, love, and learn.

Rhythms of the Brain By Gyorgy Buzsaki. Oxford University Press, 2006.

Proof of Heaven: A Neurosurgeon’s Journey into the Afterlife

by Eben Alexander

A Scientist’s Case for the Afterlife…

Thousands of people have had near-death experiences, but scientists have argued that they are impossible. Dr. Eben Alexander was one of those scientists. A highly trained neurosurgeon, Alexander knew that NDEs feel real, but are simply fantasies produced by brains under extreme stress.

Then, Dr. Alexander’s own brain was attacked by a rare illness. The part of the brain that controls thought and emotion—and in essence makes us human—shut down completely. For seven days he lay in a coma. Then, as his doctors considered stopping treatment, Alexander’s eyes popped open. He had come back.

Alexander’s recovery is a medical miracle. But the real miracle of his story lies elsewhere. While his body lay in coma, Alexander journeyed beyond this world and encountered an angelic being who guided him into the deepest realms of super-physical existence. There he met, and spoke with, the Divine source of the universe itself.

Alexander’s story is not a fantasy. Before he underwent his journey, he could not reconcile his knowledge of neuroscience with any ...

APA Neuroscience Journals & Books

The American Psychological Association has compiled a list of 398 neuroscience-related APA publications. Below is a sampling of the journals, books, and web pages in their list.

Psychology & Neuroscience (journal)

Psychology & Neuroscience publishes articles encompassing all intersection areas between psychology and neurosciences.

The journal is organized into five thematic sections:

Psychophysics and Perception Behavior/Systems/Cognition Plasticity and Neural Development Clinical and Experimental Neuropsychology Neuropsychopharmacology

Behavioral Neuroscience  (journal)

The primary mission of Behavioral Neuroscience® is to publish original research articles as well as reviews in the broad field of the neural bases of behavior.

We seek empirical papers reporting novel results that provide insight into the mechanisms by which nervous systems produce and are affected by behavior. Experimental subjects may include human and non-human animals and may address any phase of the lifespan, from early development to senescence.

Studies employing brain-imaging techniques in normal and pathological human populations are encouraged, as are studies using non-traditional species (including invertebrates) and employing comparative analyses. Studies using computational approaches to understand behavior and cognition are particularly encouraged.

In addition to behavior, it is expected that some aspect of nervous system function will be manipulated or observed, ranging across molecular, cellular, neuroanatomical, neuroendocrinological, neuropharmacological, and neurophysiological levels of analysis. Behavioral studies are welcome so long ...
