SOMATOSENSORY AND MOTOR RESEARCH

Somatosensory & Motor Research publishes original, high-quality papers that encompass the entire range of investigations related to the neural bases for somatic sensation, somatic motor function, somatic motor integration, and modeling thereof. Comprising anatomical, physiological, biochemical, pharmacological, behavioral, and psychophysical studies, Somatosensory & Motor Research covers all facets of the peripheral and central processes underlying cutaneous sensation, and includes studies relating to afferent and efferent mechanisms of deep structures (e.g., viscera, muscle). Studies of motor systems at all levels of the neuraxis are covered, but reports restricted to non-neural aspects of muscle generally would belong in other journals. Experimental and descriptive studies in all animals, including humans, are emphasized; clinical case reports and neuropathological findings are encouraged when they are of general interest in elucidating somatosensory and motor mechanisms. Submissions Descriptions of modifications in techniques are rarely accepted and only if there is evidence of their unusual importance. Theoretical papers and critical reviews will be published occasionally; authors contemplating such contributions should consult the Editor. Periodically there are announcements of events, book reviews and news items of general interest to readers. There are no page charges in this journal.

体感与运动研究发表原创的高质量的论文，涵盖了与躯体感觉的神经基础、躯体运动功能、躯体运动整合及其建模相关的整个研究领域。包括解剖学、生理学、生物化学、药理学、行为学和心理物理学的研究，躯体感觉和运动研究涵盖了皮肤感觉基础的周围和中心过程的所有方面，包括与深层结构(如内脏、肌肉)的传入和传出机制有关的研究。在神经轴的所有层次的运动系统的研究被覆盖，但是报告被限制在肌肉的非神经方面通常属于其他期刊。强调对包括人类在内的所有动物进行实验和描述性研究;当临床病例报告和神经病理学发现对阐明躯体感觉和运动机制具有普遍兴趣时，应予以鼓励。提交的技术修改描述很少被接受，而且只有在有证据表明其异常重要时才会被接受。偶尔发表理论论文和评论;考虑作出这种贡献的作者应咨询编辑。定期发布读者感兴趣的事件、书评和新闻。这本日记本没有页数收费。三份你的手稿,连同一个磁盘组成的ASCII格式的标题页和抽象,应该发送到:托马斯·a·伍尔西主编躯体感觉和运动神经病学和神经外科研究部门,华盛顿大学医学院校园8213箱,4566年斯科特大道,圣路易斯密苏里州63110,美国电话:+13147471260传真:+1314 3628359电子邮件:somore@medicine.wustl.edu。
