This Methods Collection invites novel full-text research articles on the latest trends in neuropharmacology, behavioral studies, neurodegenerative diseases, and cognitive neuroscience. We aim to showcase novel protocols and methods for simulating neurodegenerative diseases in preclinical subjects and understanding the effects of therapeutic agents on the mammalian central nervous system, with a particular focus on cognitive function in neurodegenerative conditions. 

Our collection places a special emphasis on novel CNS-related investigations at the cellular and molecular levels. We encourage authors to submit articles focusing on preclinical research, as clinical research articles are outside our scope. Additionally, we recommend including graphical abstracts to help readers better understand the research work.
