This is an international journal with broad coverage of all aspects of the autonomic nervous system in man and animals. The main areas of interest include the innervation of blood vessels and viscera, autonomic ganglia, efferent and afferent autonomic pathways, and autonomic nuclei and pathways in the central nervous system. The Editors will consider papers that deal with any aspect of the autonomic nervous system, including structure, physiology, pharmacology, biochemistry, development, evolution, ageing, behavioural aspects, integrative role and influence on emotional and physical states of the body. Interdisciplinary studies will be encouraged. Studies dealing with human pathology will be also welcome.The journal publishes Special Issues in which leading experts are invited to serve as Guest Editors to compile a collection of reviews, and occasionally original articles, around a particular topical theme in neuroscience research. The list of recent Special Issues can be found here. Suggestions for Special Issues can be made directly to the Editor-in-Chief. AUDIENCE . Researchers in physiology, neuroscience, neurology.

Your Paper Your Way We now differentiate between the requirements for new and revised submissions. You may choose to submit your manuscript as a single Word or PDF file to be used in the refereeing process. Only when your paper is at the revision stage, will you be requested to put your paper in to a 'correct format' for acceptance and provide the items required for the publication of your article. To find out more, please visit the Preparation section below. Introduction This is an international journal with broad coverage of all aspects of the autonomic nervous system in man and animals. The main areas of interest include the innervation of blood vessels and viscera, autonomic ganglia, efferent and afferent autonomic pathways, and autonomic nuclei and pathways in the central nervous system. The Editors will consider papers that deal with any aspect of the autonomic nervous system, including structure, physiology, pharmacology, biochemistry, development, evolution, ageing, behavioural aspects, integrative role and influence on emotional and physical states of the body. Interdisciplinary studies will be encouraged. Studies dealing with human pathology will be also welcome. Types of Article The journal publishes full-length articles of original research; Short Communications; Rapid communications; Review articles; Clinical Reports and Letters to the Editor. Review Articles These are exhaustive reviews on a specific topic in autonomic neuroscience. Authors should endeavor to make their reviews understandable to neuroscientists of other disciplines. Review submissions are typically 8,000 word, but this is flexible. Mini-Review Articles These focus on recent aspects of a field or to provide an overview to an emerging field or technique. Mini-review submissions are typically 4,500 words, but this is flexible. Rapid communications Reports on exciting new results within the scope of the journal can be submitted for publication in the rapid communications section. A rapid communication should not exceed 700 words and should contain at most one simple table or figure. A maximum of 8 references may be used. The manuscript should be arranged in the following order: title (not exceeding 100 characters including spaces between words); surname(s) of author(s), preceded by one name spelled out in full; name and address of the establishment where the work was done (all on 1 page); abstract (max. 75 words) and keywords (indexing terms, max. 3 items); text without subheadings; acknowledgement(s); references; figure legend and figure or table. Name, full postal address, telephone, fax numbers and e-mail address of the author to whom correspondence is to be sent should be mentioned on the title page. Rapid communications have priority at the editorial office and publisher. Short communications Short communications
