Professor Stephen D. Meriney has been appointed as Editor-in-Chief of Brain Sciences, an international peer-reviewed open access journal on neuroscience. His term started in October 2019.
Prof. Meriney is supported by a team of Section Editors-in-Chief: Professor Sergey Kasparov, Dr. Caterina Cinel, Professor Heather Bortfeld, Dr. Evanthia Bernitsas, Professor Pierluigi Zoccolotti, Dr. Jose Lujan, Professor Konstantin V. Slavin, Professor Jason Brandt, Dr. Andrew Clarkson and Dr. Mark Burke.
After postdoctoral training with Dr. Alan Grinnell at the UCLA Jerry Lewis Neuromuscular Research Center, Prof. Meriney joined the faculty in the Neuroscience Department at the University of Pittsburgh in 1993 where he is now professor of Neuroscience and Psychiatry. His research program is focused on voltage-gated calcium channels, synaptic physiology and modulation, neuromuscular diseases, and the development of novel calcium channel gating modifiers as potential therapeutics for neuromuscular diseases. His research program has been continuously supported predominately by grants from the National Institutes of Health and the Muscular Dystrophy Association.
