Journal: Developmental Neuroscience

Submission Deadline: March 31, 2025

We are excited to announce a call for papers on “Novel Insights on Neocortex Development”. This call seeks to uncover and explore the latest advancements in understanding the neurodevelopment of the neocortex, a pivotal region of the brain involved in complex cognitive processes. 

We welcome a wide array of research topics, including: the molecular and cellular mechanisms that influence neocortical development, the impact of genetic and environmental factors on neocortical structure and function, and the application of cutting-edge technologies and methodologies in studying neocortical maturation. Contributions that examine the implications of these findings for neurodevelopmental disorders and cognitive functions are also encouraged. 

Our goal is to showcase innovative research and foster interdisciplinary discussions that bridge developmental biology, neuroscience, and clinical studies. We encourage researchers at all stages of their careers to share their most recent discoveries and theoretical insights. We look forward to your contributions and to advancing the field of neocortical development. 

Please select the option “Call for Papers: Novel Insights on Neocortex Development” when submitting your manuscript and mention this Call for Papers in your cover letter.
