Instructions for authors

Neural Systems & Circuits aims to publish exciting research on how individual neurons interact at the network level to perform interesting computations. We welcome purely theoretical work, studies combining theory and experiment, reports of technical or analytical innovations (especially if they serve to catalyze an understanding of the function of neural circuits), and large-scale genetic or connectomic studies. All model organisms are welcome.
