Submission guidelines
Instructions for Authors
Types of Papers
Regular Articles: full-length research papers presenting novel results important for the computational neuroscience community. There are no limits to the number of pages and figures. Regular Articles are expected to constitute the core of JCNS publications.
Short Communications: short peer-reviewed papers relating important findings that deserve rapid publication because of their significance or broad interest. The length and the number of figures are limited to 3000 words (text, including references), plus 3 figures (which can be multi-panel figures) and a maximum of one table. For those papers, the time to publication will be minimized (this fast track will be treated in priority). The format remains the same as for regular articles, except that we ask the authors to be very concise in writing their introduction and discussion, and reviewers will be asked to be prompt in their review.
Perspectives: short peer-reviewed papers aimed at informing the community about new ideas or new interpretations of existing data and/or models. Perspective papers have a limit of 3000 words and typically 1 figure or table and should not report any new data, but could for example show a re-analysis of existing data or propose a new interpretation of published data. Perspective papers should add a dimension to the research and should not merely comment on or summarize other papers. Perspectives are also the place to publish ideas from a personal viewpoint that are very novel, but not elaborate enough to form a full paper. Perspectives will be typically reviewed by a member of the editorial board who may ask the help of and an additional reviewer if needed, so the publication is expected to be fast.
Perspectives must not exceed a total of 3000 words, including Abstract, references, and possible tables, and must not be divided into sections.
The last paragraph should be a concluding statement. Necessary figures may be included.
Review and Mini-Review Articles: full-length (review) or short (approximately 3000 words) peer-reviewed articles on a topic of interest to the computational neuroscience community. Authors are asked to take particular care in writing the review in a way that readers outside this field can understand the main ideas and their importance. Review papers are normally invited by the Editor in Chief, but they can also be solicited by Authors. In this case, the Author(s) should contact the Editor in Chief, and send an outline of the review stressing why it is important and timely to review this topic, and why it is relevant to this journal. Invited Reviews will be processed and reviewed like regular articles, except that the referees will be explicitly told that it is an invited review paper.
Opinions: articles that consider a topic of interest to the computational neuroscience community from the author’s personal viewpoint. Speculation and controversy are not discouraged, but opinions should be supported by published data. As with reviews, authors should take particular care in ensuring that the main ideas can be understood by non-specialists, and may choose to incorporate a brief review into the paper. Prospective authors of opinion pieces should contact the Editor in Chief with a brief summary prior to submission. There is no specific length limit, but brevity (under 5000 words) is encouraged. Opinions will be reviewed, and the referees will be explicitly told that the article is intended to be an evidence-supported opinion piece.
Topical Reviews on Techniques: this category is similar to Invited Reviews, except that the article should focus on a method or technique of interest to the computational neuroscience community (for example tools for information theoretic analysis of spike trains, theoretical methods for analyzing membrane dynamics, etc).
These papers can be either invited or solicited by Authors (see Review Articles for procedure). The Authors of Topical Reviews on Techniques are strongly advised to provide tutorial programs that could be published in the web site as supplementary information, as well as linked to databases such as ModelDB (see link below).

Editorial procedure Guideline
Neuroscience Peer Review Consortium
The Journal of Computational Neuroscience is a member of the Neuroscience Peer Review Consortium (NPRC), an alliance of neuroscience journals that have agreed to share manuscript reviews at the author's request. The NPRC has been formed to expedite the review process, to speed the publication of research reports, and to reduce the overall burden on peer reviewers. For information about the Consortium and instructions on how to forward reviews, please visit:
http://nprc.incf.org/authors/information-for-authors
Manuscript Submission
Submission of a manuscript implies: that the work described has not been published before; that it is not under consideration for publication anywhere else; that its publication has been approved by all co-authors, if any, as well as by the responsible authorities – tacitly or explicitly – at the institute where the work has been carried out. The publisher will not be held legally responsible should there be any claims for compensation.
Permissions
Authors wishing to include figures, tables, or text passages that have already been published elsewhere are required to obtain permission from the copyright owner(s) for both the print and online format and to include evidence that such permission has been granted when submitting their papers. Any material received without such evidence will be assumed to originate from the authors.

Text
For first (initial) submissions, we require a single file containing your manuscript as a minimum (Word or PDF). While full source files for LaTeX submissions are encouraged we understand that you may prefer to submit only a PDF at this stage.
For revised submissions we strongly recommend to upload the editable source files (either Word or LaTeX) together with a PDF of the revised (LaTeX) manuscript for reference. We can process a PDF-only submission, but upon acceptance source files are mandatory and providing source files after acceptance may delay production.
Text Formatting
Manuscripts should be submitted in LaTeX. Please use Springer’s LaTeX macro package and choose the formatting option “twocolumn”.
The submission should include the original source (including all style files and figures) and a PDF version of the compiled output.

Footnotes
Footnotes can be used to give additional information, which may include the citation of a reference included in the reference list. They should not consist solely of a reference citation, and they should never include the bibliographic details of a reference. They should also not contain any figures or tables.
Footnotes to the text are numbered consecutively; those to tables should be indicated by superscript lower-case letters (or asterisks for significance values and other statistical data). Footnotes to the title or the authors of the article are not given reference symbols.
Always use footnotes instead of endnotes.
Acknowledgments
Acknowledgments of people, grants, funds, etc. should be placed in a separate section on the title page. The names of funding organizations should be written in full.
LaTeX and Online Submission

Please use the standard mathematical notation for formulae, symbols, etc.:Italic for single letters that denote mathematical constants, variables, and unknown quantities Roman/upright for numerals, operators, and punctuation, and commonly defined functions or abbreviations, e.g., cos, det, e or exp, lim, log, max, min, sin, tan, d (for derivative) Bold for vectors, tensors, and matrices.
References
Citation
Cite references in the text by name and year in parentheses. Some examples:
Negotiation research spans many disciplines (Thompson, 1990).
This result was later contradicted by Becker and Seligman (1996).
This effect has been widely studied (Abbott, 1991; Barakat et al., 1995; Kelso & Smith, 1998; Medvec et al., 1999).
Authors are encouraged to follow official APA version 7 guidelines on the number of authors included in reference list entries (i.e., include all authors up to 20; for larger groups, give the first 19 names followed by an ellipsis and the final author’s name). However, if authors shorten the author group by using et al., this will be retained.
