Journal Guide

Blood Cancer Journal is a peer-reviewed, online, open access, sister journal to the well-established and highly respected, Leukemia (2011 impact factor 9.561, Journal Citation Reports, Thomson Reuters, 2011), bringing to the fore outstanding pre-clinical and clinical research in the field of hematology, with ramifications into translational biology research down to new therapies. Topics of particular concentration will include, but are not limited to, the following:

Bone Marrow Transplantation publishes high quality, peer reviewed original research that addresses all aspects of basic biology and clinical use of haemopoietic stem cell transplantation.The broad scope of the journal thus encompasses topics such as stem cell biology, e.g., kinetics and cytokine control, transplantation immunology e.g., HLA and matching techniques, translational research, and clinical results of specific transplant protocols. Bone Marrow Transplantation publishes 12 issues a year.

emotion dysregulation, neurobiology, co-occuring psychiatric disorders, personality disorder, treatment, animals models of BPD

The Botanical Studies is a fully open access journal published under the brand SpringerOpen: an international, academic journal that welcomes original papers in all fields of botany. The journal has an improved format and an enlarged editorial board of renowned, international scholars.The journal is published quarterly, has a world-wide circulation, and is covered by major abstracting and indexing services, such as BIOSISR, CAB Abstracts, Current Contents (CC/A,B&ES).

Life Sciences, Research Alert, Science Citation Index (SCI), SCISEARCHR, TAXON, Tobacco Abstracts, International Association for Plant Taxonomy (IAPT) and Japan Science and Technology Corporation.

Information Center for Science and Technology (JICST). Accepted manuscripts will be published within six months, after editorial and peer review and copy editing.

Boundary Value Problems is a peer-reviewed open access journal published under the brand SpringerOpen. The main aim of Boundary Value Problems is to provide a forum to promote, encourage, and bring together various disciplines which use the theory, methods, and applications of boundary value problems. Boundary Value Problems will publish very high quality research articles on boundary value problems for ordinary, functional, difference, elliptic, parabolic, and hyperbolic differential equations. Articles on singular, free, and ill-posed boundary value problems, and other areas of abstract and concrete analysis are welcome. In addition to regular research articles, Boundary Value Problems will publish review articles.

Boundary-Layer Meteorology publishes papers on the physical, chemical and biological processes occurring in the lowest few kilometres of the Earth's atmosphere. Boundary-Layer Meteorology has become the primary medium for the publication of theoretical, numerical and experimental studies of the atmospheric boundary layer over both land and sea surfaces.Subject areas covered in the journal include agriculture and forestry, air pollution, air-sea interaction, hydrology, micrometeorology, the planetary boundary layer, surface processes, mesoscale meteorology, numerical modelling of the lower atmosphere, remote sensing, and urban meteorology. Occasional special issues are published that cover a particular topic in great depth.

Brain Imaging and Behavior now accepted to PubMed and ISI! Brain Imaging and Behavior is a quarterly, peer-reviewed journal that publishes clinically relevant research using neuroimaging approaches to enhance our understanding of disorders of higher brain function. The journal is targeted at clinicians and researchers in fields concerned with human brain-behavior relationships, such as neuropsychology, psychiatry, neurology, neurosurgery, rehabilitation, and cognitive neuroscience. Highlights of Brain Imaging and Behavior include the following: Includes full-color images Brings a clinical perspective and behavioral focus to the study of cognitive processes and brain mapping Encompasses original research, review articles, short communications, news sections, and letters to the editor Distinguished editorial board of experts across disciplines THE forum for discussion of discoveries, advances, and controversies in the interface of functional brain imaging and human behavior

Brain Structure & Function publishes research that provides insight into brain structure-function relationships. Studies published here integrate data spanning from molecular, cellular, developmental, and system architecture, to the neuroanatomy of behavior and cognitive functions, to clinical neuroanatomy and brain dysfunction. Studies of the mammalian nervous system are central to the journal, yet coverage ranges beyond this taxon. Methodologies include modern tracing, immunocytochemical and neuroimaging methods; neuroinformatics (databases and internet tools); statistical techniques that support the integration of 3D cellular and systems-level anatomical data; and genetic/molecular/electrophysiological approaches to neural circuit models. The journal presents full-length papers, short communications, and reviews.

Brain Topography publishes clinical and basic research on cognitive neuroscience and functional neurophysiology using the full range of imaging techniques including EEG, MEG, fMRI, TMS, diffusion imaging, spectroscopy, intracranial recordings, lesion studies, and related methods. Submissions combining multiple techniques are particularly encouraged, as well as reports of new and innovative methodologies. Brain Topography is also an appropriate venue for case/clinical studies from one or a cohort of patients/subjects that provide insights into the neural basis of a psychiatric or neurological impairment and/or the efficacy of a novel therapy. Such studies should be of sufficiently broad interest to both clinical and basic researchers. Examinations of the function of a specific brain region or regions in patients or animal models would also be appropriate, provided that they demonstrate clear relevance and applicability to humans. Brain Topography publishes full-length Original Articles, Brief Communications, R

Brain Tumor Pathology is the official journal of the Japan Society of Brain Tumor Pathology. This international journal documents the latest research and topical debate in all clinical and experimental fields relating to brain tumors, especially brain tumor pathology. The journal has been published since 1983 and has been recognized worldwide as a unique journal of high quality. The journal welcomes the submission of manuscripts from any country. Membership in the society is not a prerequisite for submission. The journal publishes original articles, case reports, rapid short communications, instructional lectures, review articles, letters to the editor, and topics. The latter are papers recommended at the annual meeting of the Japan Society of Brain Tumor Pathology. All contributions should be aimed at promoting international scientific collaboration.
