Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Neuromodulation is an expanding technique integrating medicine, biology and engineering, including non-invasive and invasive methods. Among them, the former has the advantage of being efficient and safe and is applied in neuropsychiatry therapy. Non-invasive neuromodulation can regulate the neural activity of the brain to affect brain functions including cognition, emotion, social behavior, and so on. The main intervention types include transcranial electrical stimulation, transcranial magnetic stimulation, transcranial ultrasound stimulation, etc. Over the past twenty years, non-invasive neuromodulation has played an increasingly important role in the treatment of many neuropsychiatric diseases, such as depression, Parkinson's disease, Alzheimer's disease, schizophrenia and vascular dementia.
This Special Issue entitled Non-invasive Neuromodulation for Brain Function: Past, Present and Promise aims to present a collection of studies detailing the most recent advancements in the field of non-invasive neuromodulation for brain function. We welcome original research papers, theoretical and methodology papers, and review papers describing the generation, use, and knowledge translation of non-invasive neuromodulation.

Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.
Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Brain Sciences is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly journal published by MDPI.
Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2200 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
