OBM Neurobiology is an international peer-reviewed Open Access journal published quarterly online by LIDSEN Publishing Inc. By design, the scope of OBM Neurobiology is broad, so as to reflect the multidisciplinary nature of the field of Neurobiology that interfaces biology with the fundamental and clinical neurosciences. As such, OBM Neurobiology embraces rigorous multidisciplinary investigations into the form and function of neurons and glia that make up the nervous system, either individually or in ensemble, in health or disease. OBM Neurobiology welcomes original contributions that employ a combination of molecular, cellular, systems and behavioral approaches to report novel neuroanatomical, neuropharmacological, neurophysiological and neurobehavioral findings related to the following aspects of the nervous system: Signal Transduction and Neurotransmission; Neural Circuits and Systems Neurobiology; Nervous System Development and Aging; Neurobiology of Nervous System Diseases (e.g., Developmental Brain Disorders; Neurodegenerative Disorders).
OBM Neurobiology publishes a variety of article types (Original Research, Review, Communication, Opinion, Comment, Conference Report, Technical Note, Book Review, etc.). Although the OBM Neurobiology Editorial Board encourages authors to be succinct, there is no restriction on the length of the papers. Authors should present their results in as much detail as possible, as reviewers are encouraged to emphasize scientific rigor and reproducibility.

About This Topic
Acute stroke remains a leading cause of mortality and long-term disability globally, presenting a time-sensitive challenge that demands continuous innovation in both basic science and clinical practice. This special issue aims to provide a comprehensive platform for the latest advancements in Acute Stroke and Neurovascular Research, exploring the intricate pathophysiology and the rapidly evolving landscape of stroke management.
We invite researchers and clinicians to submit contributions that investigate the underlying mechanisms of ischemic and hemorrhagic stroke, including neuroinflammation, blood-brain barrier integrity, hemodynamic regulation and nutritional aspects. The scope of this issue extends from identifying novel therapeutic targets and biomarkers to translational research and clinical studies on reperfusion therapy, mechanical thrombectomy and neuroprotection.
We welcome original research, reviews, and short communications that advance our understanding of neurovascular health and pave the way for improved patient outcomes.
Keywords
