Introduction The Journal of Neuroimmunology affords a forum for the publication of works on all branches of the neurosciences with the scope of uncovering aspects of neuro-immune interactions. Specific areas of interest are related (but not exclusive) to neuroinflammatory, neurodegenerative, neuroinfectious, and psychiatric diseases, peripheral neuropathies, spinal cord injury, neuroimaging, studies on central nervous systems (CNS) barriers and lymphatics, brain cancer, role of innate and adaptive immunity, and the gut microbiome in CNS health and diseases. The scope of the Journal is broad, covering both research and clinical problems of neuroscientific interest giving priorities to cutting edge and novel work. A major aim of the Journal is to encourage the development of approaches to analyze in depth the neuroimmune system and interactions between the nervous and immune systems. Types of paper Full Length Article Full-length articles are detailed studies reporting original research not being considered for publication elsewhere. Scientific contributions that are deemed preliminary and without fully developed new concepts will not be taken into consideration. • A minimum of 5 multi-panel figures for each full-length article is expected. No more than 10 multi- panel figures will be accepted without prior approval. • Expected range of word count for a full-length article is between 2,000 to 6,000 words. • Supplemental figures and tables are accepted. • Statistical methods should be described in a separate section within the Methods, along with information on reproducibility and transparency of results. • Datasets of omics studies should be made publicly available. Short Communication This format should be considered for research that is deemed to be of high impact and high novelty. One version of a short communication could be in the form of a case report preferably leading to updated guidelines for clinicians. Case reports should be more than one case unless highly unique and ideally presented with a review of the literature of similar cases. Lower priority will be given to confirmatory cases. • A maximum word length for short communications is set at 2,000 words. • No more than 3 figures are expected with a short communication. Review Article • Pre-submission inquiries with a suggested outline of the content are required for any review article. • Typically, authors choose to submit 2-4 figures and up to 7,000 words for review articles. • Reviews should be considered a critical overview of the field, with a strong focus on current challenges and bottlenecks to future advances. Please make sure to adopt a mechanistic viewpoint where possible. • The review must represent a fair coverage of the most recent advances and relevant approaches and accommodate different points of view. The scope of the review should stand out from other recently published reviews on the same theme. • Finally, we would encourage to include an 'outlook' paragraph at the end of the review that proposes the future direction the authors consider the field should take and the prospects for useful applications expected to see in the near future and beyond. Correspondence Commentary or responses to published articles should be written as a letter to the editors. The goal of correspondences is to provide a forum for discussion among authors and readers of the Journal of Neuroimmunology. These should be limited to comments about studies published in the Journal of Neuroimmunology. Editorial Conference Report Personal Report Book Review The journal primarily publishes full-length papers describing original work but it will also accept a small number of review articles. Short communications, not exceeding 1500 words, will be accepted for rapid publication.

  • 2021 Psychiatry CC-MOC Content Specifications
    CONTINUING CERTIFICATION/MOC EXAMINATION IN PSYCHIATRY The American Board of Psychiatry and Neurology, Inc. (ABPN) has issued new, two- dimensional content specifications for the psychiatry, neurology and child neurology continuing certification/MOC examinations. Questions for the 2021 psychiatry, neurology and child neurology continuing certification examinations will conform to these new content specifications. Within the two-dimensional format, one dimension is comprised of disorders and topics while the other is comprised of competencies and mechanisms that cut across the various disorders of the first dimension. By design, the two dimensions are interrelated and not independent of each other. All of the questions on the examination will fall into one of the disorders/topics and will be aligned with a competency/mechanism. For example, an item on substance use could focus on treatment, or it could focus on systems-based practice. The psychiatry, neurology and child neurology continuing certification content specifications can be accessed from the Specialty MOC Exams section of our website. Candidates should use the new detailed content specifications as a guide to prepare for a continuing certification examination. Scores for these examinations will be reported in a standardized format rather than the previous percent correct format. In addition to these three continuing certification examinations, ABPN examinations will gradually conform to the new two-dimensional content specification starting in 2018. The American Board of Psychiatry and Neurology, Inc. is a not-for-profit corporation dedicated to serving the public interest and the professions of psychiatry and neurology by promoting excellence in practice through certification and continuing certification processes.

Immune system – detection & response Innate immune response: 1) Antigen-presenting cells (APCs) are activated through recognition of pathogens (or PAMPs) by receptors such as TLRs or NBD-LRR proteins. 2) This activation leads to the production of inflammatory cytokines and the expression of co-stimulatory molecules on the cell surface. Adaptive immune response: 3) Antigens will be presented by MHC molecules on APCs to T lymphocytes (Signal 1).

Longbrake, MD, PhD [email protected] Neurology® 2020;94:1-6. doi:10.1212/WNL.0000000000009096 Abstract Objective To investigate the current status of postgraduate training in neuroimmunology and multiple sclerosis (NI/MS) in the United States. Methods We developed a questionnaire to collect information on fellowship training focus, duration of training, number of fellows, funding application process, rotations, visa sponsorship, and an open-ended question about challenges facing training in NI/MS. We identified target programs and sent the questionnaires electronically to fellowship program directors. Results We identified and sent the questionnaire to 69 NI/MS fellowship programs. We successfully obtained data from 64 programs. Most programs were small, matriculating 1–2 fellows per year, and incorporated both NI and MS training into the curriculum. Most programs were flexible in their duration, typically lasting 1–2 years, and offered opportunities for research during training. Only 56% reported the ability to sponsor nonimmigrant visas. Most institutions reported having some internal funding, although the availability of these funds varied from year to year. Several program directors identified funding availability and the current absence of national subspecialty certification as major challenges facing NI/MS training.
