Neuroscience-based Nomenclature (NbN) for Clinical Psychopharmacology and Neuroscience

Neuroscience-based Nomenclature (NbN) for Journal of Psychopharmacology.

As of May 2016, the Journal of Psychopharmacology will fully adopt Neuroscience-based Nomenclature (NbN) for all publications and correspondence. In this, we join many other leading journals in our field, including European Neuropsychopharmacology, Biological Psychiatry, CNS Spectrums, European Psychiatry, International Journal of Neuropsychopharmacology, Journal of Clinical Psychopharmacology,...
