Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Translational research is based on an approach that aims to convert basic research results into practical applications. In biomedical sciences, this perspective is also referred to as bench to bedside. An essential aspect of translational research is that the outcomes generate scientific and operational innovations and, as a result, benefit clinical practice. This Special Issue aims to refer to the traditional research paradigm in reference to neuroanatomy as a broadly understood part of neuroscience. Thus, the Special Issue "Translational Neuroanatomy: Recent Updates and Future Perspectives—2nd Edition" has been designed and aims to enable researchers and authors to present a wide range of reports that concern the following topics:
- New neuroanatomical concepts, especially neuroanatomical studies based on new methods or new approaches;
- Original research that may potentially change the direction of thinking about a specific issue or topic related to central or peripheral nervous system structure and function;
- Basic and clinical research extending existing knowledge of the nervous system in the context of clinical practice;
- Neuroanatomical techniques used to study neuroanatomy.
High-quality original research papers, reviews, and meta-analyses on topics related to the structure and functioning of the brain and nervous system are also welcome.
