As of March 2020, CBN is available online only. No need to wait for the issue to be published and mailed. Now, you can simply view it online as soon as the first week of each quarter (March, June, September, December).

If you publish in CBN, more peers than ever will see your article.  In the past year, the number of full-text articles viewed on CBN’s website doubled.  CBN is a forum for advances in the neurologic understanding and possible treatment of disorders that affect thinking, learning, memory, communication, and behavior.  Last year, CBN published 320 pages of reviews, case reports, orginal studies, and first person experiences addressing research, patient care, education, and professional advancement, from the perspectives of neurology, cognitive neuroscience, neuropsychology, neuropsychiatry, and other relevant fields.

Submitting Your Manuscript Is Easier Than Ever

Cognitive and Behavioral Neurology welcomes member submissions.  The journal’s Instructions for Authors section has been reformatted as a live page on the website, making it more accessible. Links to sample CBN articles are provided with guidelines on requirements for each type of article.  CBN content is also more interesting and informative than ever before.  As a hybrid traditional and open access subspecialty journal, CBN offers authors these advantages:

  • No word limits or format restrictions.
  • Publication of opinion pieces and more traditional peer-reviewed papers.
  • Eclectic mix of articles; particularly welcome are review articles (including reviews of clinical practice), case reports, hypotheses, instructional articles for students or professionals, first-person accounts of neurologic experiences, and innovative articles that do not fit neatly into any category.
  • Submissions invited from neurology, cognitive neuroscience, neuropsychology, neuropsychiatry, and all other relevant fields.
  • Opportunities for “theme” issues with guest editors.
