About the journal
|
"Neuroepidemiology" is the only periodical devoted to descriptive, analytical and experimental studies in the epidemiology of neurologic disease. The journal contains information of interest to many branches of neuroscience. Original articles discuss the classification, natural history and frequency of neurologic disease in different populations. Reports are published of new analytic methods and of research on environmental and genetic factors affecting risk of neurologic disease. The journal also features timely, critical reviews by invited authorities in neuroepidemiology giving readers current |
 | and comprehensive information from around the world. "Neuroepidemiology" expands the boundaries of traditional clinical neurology by providing new insights regarding the etiology, distribution and prevention of diseases of the nervous system. Book reviews and selected abstracts from international journals provide updated information in this field.

Conditions
All manuscripts are subject to editorial review.
Manuscripts are received with the explicit understanding that they are not under simultaneous consideration by any other publication. Submission of an article for publication implies transfer of the copyright from the author to the publisher upon acceptance. Accepted papers become the permanent property of ¡®Neuroepidemiology?and may not be reproduced by any means, in whole or in part, without the written consent of the publisher.
It is the author¡¯s responsibility to obtain permission to reproduce illustrations, tables, etc. from other publications.
Arrangement
Title page: The first page of each paper should indicate the title, the authors?names, the institute where the work was conducted, and a short title for use as running head.
NB: Authors wishing to preserve the phonetic meaning of diacritics (PubMed reduces diacritics to their root characters) must spell their names accordingly when submitting manuscripts (e.g. Moler should be Mueller).
Full address: The exact postal address of the corresponding author complete with postal code must be given at the bottom of the title page. Please also supply phone and fax numbers, as well as e-mail address.
Key words: For indexing purposes, a list of 30 key words in English is essential.
Abstract: Each paper needs an abstract of up to 10 lines.
Footnotes: Avoid footnotes.
Tables and illustrations: Tables and illustrations (both numbered in Arabic numerals) should be prepared on separate pages. Tables require a heading and figures a legend, also prepared on a separate page. For the reproduction of illustrations, only good drawings and original photographs can be accepted; negatives or photocopies cannot be used. Due to technical reasons, figures with a screen background should not be submitted. When possible, group several illustrations in one block for reproduction (max. size 181 x 223 mm) or provide crop marks. On the back of each illustration, indicate its number, the author¡¯s name, and ¡®top?with a soft pencil. Electronically submitted b/w half-tone and color illustrations must have a final resolution of 300 dpi after scaling, line drawings one of 800?,200 dpi.
Color Illustrations
Up to 6 color illustrations per page can be integrated with the text at the special price of CHF 660.?/ USD 545.00 per page. Color illustrations are reproduced at the author¡¯s expense.
References
In the text identify references by Arabic numerals [in square brackets]. Material submitted for publication but not yet accepted should be noted as ¡®unpublished data?and not be included in the reference list. The list of references should include only those publications which are cited in the text. Do not alphabetize; number references in the order in which they are first mentioned in the text. The surnames of the authors followed by initials should be given. There should be no punctuation other than a comma to separate the authors. Preferably, please cite all authors. Abbreviate journal names according to the Index Medicus system. (Also see International Committee of Medical Journal Editors: Uniform requirements for manuscripts submitted to biomedical journals. N Engl J Med 1997;336:309?15. www.icmje.org)
