BRAIN & SPINE, THE OFFICIAL SCIENTIFIC JOURNAL OF EUROSPINE AND EANS


Brain and Spine, the official scientific journal of the Spine Society of Europe (EUROSPINE) and European Association of Neurosurgical Societies (EANS), is a peer reviewed open access journal for scientific manuscripts concerned with pathophysiology, diagnostics, prevention, surgical and non-surgical interventions for structural pathological-anatomical alterations of the nervous system and axial skeleton.

Brain and Spine accepts high quality papers from a wide variety of research areas, such as basic science at a molecular level, translational research and clinical epidemiology through to population health at a societal level. More specifically, the journal publishes papers that emphasize the fast growing biomedical fields of genomics, molecular sciences, biomechanical engineering, computer navigation and 3-D reconstruction techniques, experimental clinical research, as well as papers from the growing public health fields of clinical epidemiology, medical decision analysis, psychology, bio-ethics and prediction modelling at a population level.

Although both scientific societies have a European origin, the journal's Editorial Team consists of experts from across the globe, with acclaimed knowledge in structural diseases of the nervous system and axial skeleton.

In the biomedical arena of structural brain and spinal disorders Brain and Spine offers authors of all disciplines with brain and spine specialization, the possibility to submit manuscripts, describing original scientific studies, systematic reviews and "rare" case illustrations with the goal to add value to brain and spine patients care in near future.
