Frontiers in Cellular Neuroscience is a first-tier electronic journal devoted to better understanding the cellular mechanisms underlying the functions of the cells composing the nervous system (neural and non-neuronal) across all species. The past years have seen exciting progress in this area because of the merging of traditionally separate fields such as anatomy, physiology and molecular genetics. We welcome submissions of multidisciplinary studies of cellular function in vertebrates, invertebrates, from cell culture to slices to in vivo, and involving genetically amenable species such as Drosophila, C. elegans, mice and zebrafish as well as any other species suited to elucidate fundamental principles of cellular function in neurons. Studies on the basic neural functions such as the generation of action potentials, synaptic transmission, biophysical and biochemical aspects of receptor activation, synaptic plasticity, intra and inter cell signaling related to the emergent functions of cells, glial-neuronal signaling and synaptic and dendritic integration, are welcome. Frontiers in Cellular Neuroscience also publishes research on the morphology of cells and how these morphologies relate to the emergent functions of neurons. Our journal also publishes research focused on the developing, adult and ageing cell as well as cellular changes in diseases. While the journals primary focus is on experimental studies, we welcome the addition of computational models to further explore experimental findings.
