ACS Chemical Neuroscience publishes high-quality research articles and reviews that showcase chemical, quantitative biological, biophysical and bioengineering approaches to the understanding of the nervous system and to the development of new treatments for neurological disorders. Research in the journal focuses on aspects of chemical neurobiology and bio-neurochemistry such as the following:

Neurotransmitters and receptors
Neuropharmaceuticals and therapeutics
Neural development—Plasticity, and degeneration
Chemical, physical, and computational methods in neuroscience
Neuronal diseases—basis, detection, and treatment
Mechanism of aging, learning, memory and behavior
Pain and sensory processing
Neurotoxins
Neuroscience-inspired bioengineering
Development of methods in chemical neurobiology
Neuroimaging agents and technologies
Animal models for central nervous system diseases
Behavioral research
Research articles reporting the identification of general principles that govern how information is processed by neuronal circuits; or using genetic model systems in conjunction with computational biology, imaging, electrophysiological, and computational neuroscience (neuroinformatics) are also welcomed.
