分子神經科學的前沿發表了嚴格的同行評審的研究，旨在確定大腦結構、設計和功能的關鍵分子。澳大利亞昆士蘭陽光海岸大學的專業主編羅伯特J.哈維和德國布倫瑞克理工大學的喬森C.邁爾得到了一個杰出的國際專家編輯委員會的支持。這本多學科開放獲取期刊處于向研究人員、學者和全世界公眾傳播和交流科學知識和有影響力的發現的前沿。分子神經科學的前沿領域歡迎以下文章類型的提交：書評、簡要研究報告、更正、數據報告、編輯、一般評論、假設和理論、方法、小評論、觀點、原始研究、觀點、評論、專業大挑戰、系統評論和技術和代碼。所有的手稿必須直接提交給分子神經科學的前沿領域，在那里，他們是同行評審的助理和審查編輯的專業期刊。在分子神經科學前沿發表的文章將從網絡出版后的前沿影響和分層系統中獲益。根據讀者的民主判斷，發表了影響最大的原創研究的作者將被主編邀請撰寫一篇前沿的重點評論——一篇爬坡文章。這被稱為“民主分層”。作者選擇是基于文章影響分析的原始研究發表在前沿專業期刊和章節。重點審查集中在原始發現上，將其置于更廣泛的背景中，并旨在解決該領域更廣泛的社區問題。

Frontiers in Molecular Neuroscience publishes rigorously peer-reviewed research that aims to identify key molecules underlying the structure, design and function of the brain across all levels. Specialty Chief Editors Robert J. Harvey at the University of the Sunshine Coast, Queensland, Australia, and Jochen C. Meier at the Technische Universitat Braunschweig, Germany, are supported by an outstanding Editorial Board of international experts. This multidisciplinary open-access journal is at the forefront of disseminating and communicating scientific knowledge and impactful discoveries to researchers, academics and the public worldwide.Frontiers in Molecular Neuroscience welcomes submissions of the following article types: Book Review, Brief Research Report, Correction, Data Report, Editorial, General Commentary, Hypothesis and Theory, Methods, Mini Review, Opinion, Original Research, Perspective, Review, Specialty Grand Challenge, Systematic Review and Technology and Code.All manuscripts must be submitted directly to Frontiers in Molecular Neuroscience, where they are peer-reviewed by the Associate and Review Editors of the specialty journal.Articles published in Frontiers in Molecular Neuroscience will benefit from the Frontiers impact and tiering system after online publication. Authors of published original research with the highest impact, as judged democratically by the readers, will be invited by the Chief Editor to write a Frontiers Focused Review - a tier-climbing article. This is referred to as "democratic tiering". The author selection is based on article impact analytics of original research published in the Frontiers specialty journals and sections. Focused Reviews are centered on the original discovery, place it into a broader context, and aim to address the wider community of the field.
