Future Neurology aims to disseminate basic, translational and clinical research, focusing on the latest advances and their potential impact on the treatment of neurological diseases and disorders. The journal delivers a wide variety of article types including original research, reviews and opinion pieces, all of which are presented in concise, at-a-glance formats. Key advances in the field are reported and analyzed by international experts, providing an authoritative but accessible forum for this vast and quickly evolving area of research.
Coverage encompasses key areas related to neuroscience, neurology and neurodegeneration, including:
Understanding biological processes within the nervous system
Mechanisms and pathologies of disease, injury and disorder including neuropsychiatry
Disease modeling systems utilizing computer, in vitro and animal approaches
Genetic factors and precision medicine
Diagnostic and prognostic advances in screening, biomarker and imaging approaches, in addition to their application in the clinic
Disease risk assessment and epidemiological studies
Improving current management and treatment approaches
Identification of novel therapeutic targets and drug delivery systems
Drug development, clinical testing and safety
Novel and emerging therapeutics including cell therapy, gene therapy, nanomedicine, immunotherapy and bioelectronics
Journal metrics can be a useful tool for readers, as well as for authors
who are deciding where to submit their next manuscript for publication.
However, any one metric only tells a part of the story of a journal’s
quality and impact. Each metric has its limitations which means that it
should never be considered in isolation, and metrics should be used to
support and not replace qualitative review.
We strongly recommend that you always use a number of metrics, alongside
other qualitative factors such as a journal’s aims & scope, its
readership, and a review of past content published in the journal. In
addition, a single article should always be assessed on its own merits and
never based on the metrics of the journal it was published in.
Usage and acceptance rate data above are for the last full calendar year
and are updated annually in February. Speed data is updated every six
months, based on the prior six months. Citation metrics are updated
annually mid-year. Please note that some journals do not display all of
the following metrics
(find out why).
Usage:
the total number of times articles in the journal were viewed by users
of Taylor & Francis Online in the previous calendar year, rounded to the

Arts and Humanities Citation Index (AHCI) and the Emerging Sources
Citation Index (ESCI) have an Impact Factor.
Impact Factor Best Quartile*:
the journal’s highest subject category ranking in the Journal Citation
Reports. Q1 = 25% of journals with the highest Impact Factors.
5 Year Impact Factor*:
the average number of citations received by articles in the journal
within a five-year window.
CiteScore (Scopus)†:
the average number of citations received by articles in the journal over
a four-year period.
CiteScore Best Quartile†:
the journal’s highest CiteScore ranking in a Scopus subject category. Q1
= 25% of journals with the highest CiteScores.
SNIP
(Source Normalized Impact per Paper):
the number of citations per paper in the journal, divided by citation
potential in the field.
SJR
(Scimago Journal Rank):
Average number of (weighted) citations in one year, divided by the
number of articles published in the journal in the previous three years.
Speed/acceptance
From submission to first decision:
the average (median) number of days for a manuscript submitted to the
journal to receive a first decision. Based on manuscripts receiving a
first decision in the last six months.
From submission to first post-review decision:
the average (median) number of days for a manuscript submitted to the
journal to receive a first decision if it is sent out for peer review.
Based on manuscripts receiving a post-review first decision in the last
six months.
From acceptance to online publication:
the average (median) number of days from acceptance of a manuscript to
online publication of the Version of Record. Based on articles published
in the last six months.
Acceptance rate:
articles accepted for publication by the journal in the previous
calendar year as percentage of all papers receiving a final decision.
