About the journal

The aim of the Journal is to advance the development of a hierarchical and functional integrative approach to the neurosciences with an emphasis on: (i) neuroimaging, (ii) comparative experimentation, and (iii) data driven modeling, including the theoretical and philosophical foundations of this approach.
The scope of the Journal is broad, encompassing all aspects of brain function, including regulation of homeostatic and maintenance functions, and behaviors in health and disease.
The Journal will promote and disseminate studies categorized under the following themes:
Theoretical methods and analytical techniques allowing integration in neuroscience (e.g., infinite dimensional nonlinear dynamical systems, theory of complexity, n-field theory, diffusion theory, category theory, graph theory);
Experimentally and mathematically integrated models of brain activity (e.g., volume transmission and deep brain stimulation, large-scale realistic cable networks of cortical and sub-cortical integration);
Functional integration of physiological control mechanisms with anatomical structure in the nervous system, central and peripheral (e.g., control and regulation in the cardio-vascular and respiratory systems, autonomic control);
Bio-engineering and experimental techniques allowing integration in neuroscience (e.g., Human-machine interface technology, brain-based devices, optical recording, multi-electrode arrays, neuroimaging);
Experimentally-based neuropsychological and neurophilosophical models (e.g., semantic ambiguity, anticipatory behavior, free will, epistemological limitations in understanding consciousness);
Applications of integration to neural pathologies and neural control physiology (e.g., brain diseases, plasticity and rehabilitation, interface between functional genomics and psychiatric illnesses).
The following types of experimental and theoretical papers are suitable for the Journal:
Rapid communications and forum style commentary articles (approx. 16 pages; 20 citations)
Original articles containing research reports (approx. 40 pages; 60 citations)
Topical reviews containing critical survey of the literature (approx. 40 pages; 120 citations)
Book reviews
The Journal is published quarterly and typeset in LaTeX with software available online at http://www.worldscinet.com/jin.html. Typesetting is available on demand.

Instructions to Authors
1. General Information
The chief criteria for acceptance of research papers submitted for publication are the significance, originality and in particular the quality of the work reported. Manuscripts are accepted for review with the understanding that the same work has not been published, and that it is not under consideration for publication elsewhere, and that if accepted it will not be published elsewhere in the same form, in any language, without the written consent of the publisher. Reference to unpublished work or personal communication in the text is not acceptable. Short communications must be carefully and concisely prepared; no reference to preliminary data, citations or otherwise should be given. Manuscripts will be peer reviewed by two (2) referees. All editorial decisions are final. Manuscripts falling outside the scope of integrative neuroscience will be returned to the author without review.
2. Refereeing Process
Refereeing: Submitted papers will be sent to two (2) editorial board members for reviewing. The editorial board members have the right to review the manuscript or send the manuscript to someone whose expertise is more closely related. In order to ensure speedy publication, the refereeing process should be approximately 4-8 weeks. Short communications take approximately 2-4 weeks.
Acceptance: The final decision to accept or reject a paper will be made by the chief editor and an associate editor, in consultation with the editorial board members.
3. Submission
All submissions should ordinarily be made in electronic form via Web-based submission to the chief editor or an associate editor. It is encouraged that authors include in their submission the name of an editorial board member they think most appropriate to handle their paper.
Manuscripts should be double-spaced throughout in 12-point type. The first page should contain the article title, author(s), and affiliation(s); at the bottom of the page should be typed a short running title of fewer than 60 characters, and the name, complete mailing address, telephone and fax numbers and email of the person to whom proofs should be sent. A short abstract not exceeding 300 words in length should describe concisely the substantive content and the conclusions reached. Up to ten (10) key words should be supplied at the end of the abstract.
4. Format of Manuscripts
Once the manuscripts is accepted to be published, the author will send to the Publisher, World Scientific, his paper in the final form as Camera-Ready Copies. It is essential that the papers be in its final form and of good appearance because it will be printed directly without any editing.
Detailed instructions for preparation of Camera-Ready Copies are available in:
Latex2e (readme / Download)
Authors are required to send a hard copy of their CRC manuscript, along with a diskette containing a soft copy of the source file to:
