Policies
Policy Concerning Availability
of Materials It is understood that by publishing a paper in The Journal of Neuroscience the author(s) agree to make freely available to colleagues in academic research any clones of cells, nucleic acids, antibodies, etc. that were used in the research reported and that are not available from commercial suppliers.
Policy on DNA Sequences
In general, only complete genomic and cDNA sequences will be accepted for publication. The accuracy of the sequence must be confirmed by analyses of both strands. By the time a paper is sent to press, sequences must be deposited in a database generally accessible to the neuroscience community; the sequence accession number should be provided. Exceptions to this policy may be considered on an individual basis.
Policies on the Use of Animals
and Humans in Neuroscience Research
All animal experimentation reported in the Journal must have been conducted
in accordance with the Policies
on the Use of Animals and Humans in Neuroscience Research, revised and approved
by the Society for Neuroscience in January 1995.
Policy on Ethics
It is expected that authors submitting papers to The Journal of Neuroscience
will have conducted their work in strict accordance with the Policy
on Ethics approved by the Society for Neuroscience in November 1989, and
amended in November 1993.
