The primary mission of Behavioral Neuroscience is to publish original papers in the broad field of the biological bases of behavior. Research articles cover all aspects of behavioral neuroscience, including
- learning
- memory
- motivation
- homeostasis
- sleep and circadian rhythms
- reproduction
- cognition
Experimental subjects include human and non-human animals; studies using non-traditional species (including invertebrates) and employing comparative analyses are welcome.
In addition to behavior, it is expected that some aspect of nervous system function will be manipulated or observed, ranging across molecular, anatomical, endocrinological, pharmacological, and physiological levels of analysis.
Studies employing brain imaging techniques in normal and pathological human populations are also published.
In addition to full-length research papers, commentaries, and reviews are also published. The journal also publishes Brief Communications; such papers must not exceed 3,250 words of text, with no more than two figures and/or tables.
