Please forward to fellow researchers & share news of the journal | Abstracted/Indexed in: PubMed Central - Google Scholar - Embase | Dear Colleague, We are delighted to announce the publication of the latest issue of Brain Plasticity (BPL), the high-quality open access journal focusing on all aspects of neurogenesis, gliogenesis and synaptic plasticity, from development to the adult. BPL Volume 5, Issue 1 is a new special issue covering the topic: Exercise Effects on Cognitive Function in Humans. This issue includes four research papers and three reviews addressing key issues in the human exercise and cognition field. The articles in this issue can be accessed via the links below, along with a list of the most read articles in BPL in 2019. The review article in the top spot was also the no.2 most read article across all IOS Press content last year. | Call for Papers We strive to give high visibility and impact to the science published in our journal. As a member of our research community, we invite you to submit manuscripts for consideration on all aspects of neural plasticity. Brain Plasticity offers contributing authors many benefits: • First class Editorial Board • Rigorous peer review and speedy manuscript processing • Rapid online publication (pre-press) • Open Access publication • Open Access author fees waived until the end of 2020 Submit your manuscript online via msTracker View detailed Instructions to Authors Aims and Scope We look forward to working with you.
