Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

We are pleased to invite you to contribute to this Special Issue of Pharmaceutics (2021 impact factor: 6.525) entitled “Drug Development and Treatment for Neurological Disease”

Neurological disorders and their sequelae (direct consequences) affect as many as one billion people worldwide and include Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s disease, epilepsy, autism spectrum disorder, or Brain damage. Novel therapeutic strategies are required which can either prevent or delay the progression of the disease

This Special Issue aims to highlight the progress and breakthroughs in drug development and treatment for neurological diseases. Research areas may include, but are not limited to, new drug therapeutic targets and biomarkers, new pathological mechanisms, and novel therapeutic agents in order to provide valuable clues for developing new therapeutic strategies for neurological diseases. In this Special Issue, original research articles and reviews are welcome.

We look forward to receiving your contributions.
