Main themes※
Articles appear within one of the following five sections of the journal:
- Cellular/Molecular
- Development/Plasticity/Repair
- Systems/Circuits
- Behavioral/Cognitive
- Neurobiology of Disease
The journal has revised its sections over the "years." In 2004, "it added the Neurobiology of Disease section due to the growing number of papers on this subject." In January 2013, the journal split the section Behavioral/Systems/Cognitive into two sections, Systems/Circuits and Behavioral/Cognitive, "in order to make the sections of the journal approximately the same in size."
