History
The first Canadian Journal of Neurological Sciences (CJNS) was published in 1974 in Winnipeg. In 1981, the Journal became the official publication of the member societies of the CNSF.

The Journal Today
Today, the Journal continues to encourage the publication of papers from all branches of the neurosciences. Journal policy is based on the firm belief that specialists working on the nervous system share many common interests and have important ideas to communicate to each other.

The Journal publishes original work in both the clinical and basic neurosciences. The circulation is currently 1,600 and consists of society members, non-members and institutions in Canada, the United States and abroad.

The Journal Available Online
The Journal is available online through Metapress, an online publisher of medical and scientific journals. All articles published since 1999 are available online. Article references will link to their electronically published source, if it is available. The Journal website is www.cjns.org.

Other Features
In addition to regular review articles on various topics, the Journal features “Canadian Association of Neuroscience Reviews” and other articles that highlight “Progress in Clinical Neurosciences”. Peer reviewed supplements are also published on selected topics.

The Journal Editorial Board wants to include high quality clinical and basic neuroscience research that occurs in Canada and abroad. The Editor-in-Chief and the board encourage authors to send the final version of their work to the Journal for possible publication. All submissions received by the Journal undergo detailed and careful peer-reviewed scrutiny.

The Journal’s combined approach to neurology, neurosurgery, clinical neurophysiology and pediatric neurology offers authors a significant advantage over other journals that may be available to them for publication.
More information for authors is available in each issue of the Journal or on the Journal website. The website also has information on subscriptions and advertising.

The Journal now has electronic submission of manuscripts. Articles can be submitted via regular mail or electronically on our website at www.cjns.org.
