Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The successful execution of movements must be combined with veridical perception, key to the survival of prehistoric humans in hostile environments. Selection pressures may have played a key role in the development of the cognitive functions of humans. One of the major areas of neuroscience research has been how the time dimension can be represented in a three-dimensional Euclidean model of the brain. Accurate representation of the time dimension in the brain can help us understand how movements are generated by the brain during various types of tasks.
We invite papers from different disciplines, such as computational neuroscience, neurobiology, and clinical research, that can shed light on representation as well as the role of the time dimension in the cognitive functions of the brain.

Manuscript Submission Information
Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.
Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Brain Sciences is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly journal published by MDPI.
Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2200 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
