Barry Stein takes over editorship of Frontiers in Integrative Neuroscience

A new journal to highlight submissions on Multisensory Topics.
Barry Stein has asked me to forward the following description of a relatively new journal that he is to take over editing- Frontiers in Integrative Neuroscience. His hope is that this journal will become a premier venue for articles from IMRF members. The journal will start to accept submissions with Barry as the editor in January.
All the Best,
David
Here is the description of the journal provided by Barry:
Brief Description of the Journal:
Frontiers in Integrative Neuroscience is a first-tier electronic journal
that is focused on synthesizing multiple facets of brain structure and
function to understand how multiple diverse functions are integrated to
produce complex behaviors. Our goal is to publish research related to
furthering the understanding of the integrative mechanisms underlying
brain functioning across one or more interacting levels of neural
organization. In most real life experiences, sensory inputs from several
modalities converge and interact (multisensory integration) in a manner
that influences perception and behavior. The journal is therefore
focused on the primary questions of how multiple sensory, cognitive and
emotional processes merge to produce coordinated complex behavior. It is
questions such as this that cannot be answered at a single level - an
ion channel, a neuron or a synapse - that we wis
h to focus on. In
Frontiers in Integrative Neuroscience we welcome in vitro or in vivo
investigations across the molecular, cellular, and systems, behavioral
and perceptual levels. Research in any species and at any stage of
development and ageing that are focused at understanding integration
mechanisms underlying emergent properties of the brain and behavior.
Reviewing Editors:
John Foxe
Elisabetta Ladavas
