Neurodegenerative Diseases
A section of Brain Sciences (ISSN 2076-3425).
Section Information
Neurodegenerative Diseases is a Section of Brain Sciences (ISSN 2076-3425), which concerns itself with any pathological condition affecting neurons and supporting cells; however, these disorders represent many neurological conditions, e.g., Parkinson’s, exhibiting numerous pathological manifestations. The aim of this Section is to encourage and provide a forum for scientists to publish their experimental results and theoretical concepts in this important area of scientific as well as medical research. There is no restriction on the maximum length of papers. Mechanistically, electronic files reporting the extended details of computational, statistical, or experimental procedures, if unwieldy for presentation in the body of a manuscript, can be deposited as supplementary material.
