Spreading Cortical Depolarizations

We call for papers covering all aspects of these profound disruptions of cellular homeostasis in the brain tissue and their importance in the pathophysiology of acute brain injury. Some examples of review or original research papers that would be responsive to this call include: Mechanisms of initiation and maintenance; Mitochondrial involvement and effects; Relationship to inflammation; Non-CNS involvement and effects; Long-term effects/Neural networks. Papers can be submitted via Editorial Manager by selecting the the relevant Topical Collection title. Please note: all submissions will be evaluated for relevance to the “Spreading Cortical Depolarization” theme and undergo a regular peer review process.
