In an Editorial to mark the 1st birthday of Neural Systems & Circuits, Peter Latham and Venkatesh Murthy (Editors-in-Chief) reflect upon the goals and achievements of this new journal aiming to bridge the gap between theory and experiment in the neurosciences.
2011 saw the journal’s inclusion in PubMed, the initiation of the Invertebrate Circuitry thematic series, and the start of the Opinionated Neuroscientists series. Commenting on the range of articles published in the journal, Latham and Murthy write “In our inaugural Editorial, we noted our desire to foster communication among theorists and experimentalists. Promisingly, computational and experimental papers have taken residence side by side in the first year. Research articles spanned a broad range, both in technique and organism. Computational work has included analysis of electrical coupling among neurons in the cerebellum and papers on visual cortical circuits.”
