STM publisher Springer, Germany, has announced that it will, from henceforth, publish Neurotoxicity Research, the official journal of the Neurotoxicity Society. The publication is an international, interdisciplinary broad-based journal reporting on both basic and clinical research on classical neurotoxicity effects and mechanisms associated with neurodegeneration, necrosis, neuronal apoptosis, nerve regeneration and other related topics.
Published eight times a year and aimed at neuroscience researchers and neurologists, the journal features original papers, reviews and society news. Richard M. Kostrzewa from Quillen College of Medicine at East Tennessee State University, USA, is editor-in-chief.
Neurotoxicity Research will be published at Springer both electronically and in print. Backfiles, going back to 1999, will be available on Springer's online platform, SpringerLink. The journal will include Online First, Cross Reference Linking and Alert services. All Neurotoxicity Research authors, via the Springer Open Choice programme, will have the option of publishing their articles using the open access publishing model. All issues from 1999 through March 2009 will be available free online on www.springerlink.com.
Neurotoxicity Society seeks to unite basic and clinical scientists in the neurotoxicity field. It facilitates the advance of preclinical research discoveries to clinical and medical utility, promotes dissemination of knowledge on these topics to the public and hosts scientific meetings on a neurotoxicity theme at regular intervals.
