Brain Structure and Function (BSF)
Journal Descriptions
Brain Structure and Function is an internationally recognized, peer-reviewed scientific journal dedicated to publishing cutting-edge research on how neuroanatomy (structure) relates to neural activity, behavior, and cognitive processes (function). Established in its current form in 2007 — though its lineage traces back over a century through earlier anatomy journals — it serves the neuroscience and anatomy communities globally. The journal covers a broad range of topics that span from molecular and cellular architecture of the nervous system to macroscopic structural organization in the human and animal brains. Typical research includes studies on cortical and subcortical connectivity, neural circuitry mapping, comparative neuroanatomy, developmental neurobiology, structural neuroimaging, and relationships between anatomical pathways and functional outcomes. Both basic science and translational work are published, including investigations of normal brain organization and changes due to aging, disease, injury, or neurodevelopmental disorders. The journal welcomes empirical research, methodological innovations (e.g., advanced imaging techniques, tracer studies), and integrative reviews that contribute to understanding how structure supports neural processes and behavior. Its bimonthly publication schedule ensures a steady stream of high-impact articles that bridge classical anatomical insights with modern neuroscience approaches and technologies.
