Frontiers in Neuroanatomy publishes rigorously peer-reviewed research revealing important aspects of the anatomical organization of all nervous systems across all species. Specialty Chief Editor Javier DeFelipe at the Cajal Institute (CSIC) is supported by an outstanding Editorial Board of international experts. This multidisciplinary open-access journal is at the forefront of disseminating and communicating scientific knowledge and impactful discoveries to researchers, academics, clinicians and the public worldwide.The use of classical and modern techniques and approaches include axonal transport methods to track the connections between brain regions; electron microscopy to obtain a more quantitative understanding of the sub-cellular and connectivity anatomy; immunocytochemistry to map protein expression patterns; in situ hybridization to map gene expression patterns; and many other powerful techniques used to examine the organization of the nervous system. Frontiers in Neuroanatomy encourages comparative studies between brain regions, between species, and also between health and disease, but is not concerned with studies that have a primary clinical focus. We encourage studies that employ modern quantitative anatomical techniques in combination with experimental studies, but submissions of descriptive neuroanatomy and theories of neuroanatomical design are also welcome. Image quality and powerful illustrations will be a major emphasis of Frontiers in Neuroanatomy. We also encourage anatomical papers that are complemented by theoretical studies to better understand the anatomical design principles of the brain.

《神經解剖學前沿》發表了嚴格的同行評審研究，揭示了所有物種所有神經系統解剖組織的重要方面。卡哈爾研究所（CSIC）的專業總編輯哈維爾·德菲利佩得到了一個杰出的國際專家編輯委員會的支持。這本多學科開放獲取期刊是向研究人員、學者、臨床醫生和全世界公眾傳播和交流科學知識和有影響力的發現的前沿。使用古典和現代技術和方法包括軸突傳輸方法來跟蹤大腦區域之間的聯系；電子顯微鏡來獲得對亞細胞和連接解剖的更定量的了解；免疫細胞化學來繪制蛋白質表達模式；原位雜交以繪制基因表達模式；以及許多其他強有力的技術用于檢查神經系統的組織。神經解剖學的前沿領域鼓勵在大腦區域之間、物種之間以及健康與疾病之間進行比較研究，但與具有主要臨床重點的研究無關。我們鼓勵將現代定量解剖學技術與實驗研究相結合的研究，但也歡迎提供描述性神經解剖學和神經解剖學設計理論的材料。圖像質量和強有力的插圖將是一個前沿的重點神經解剖學。我們還鼓勵以理論研究為補充的解剖學論文，以更好地理解大腦的解剖學設計原理。
