brain

separate

Use when targeting Brain or deciding whether a clinical-neurology or translational-neuroscience study fits this venue. Encodes the journal's fit, the mechanistic-depth-with-clinical-relevance evidence bar, reporting-guideline and registration requirements, Guarantors of Brain/OUP house style, official-submission re-check, and desk-reject heuristics. Venue-fit aid only, not clinical advice.

When to use

• targeting Brain journal
• deciding venue fit for clinical-neurology studies
• deciding venue fit for translational-neuroscience studies
• re-framing neurology studies around disease mechanisms
• checking mechanistic-evidence expectations
• checking reporting-guideline requirements
• checking desk-reject heuristics
• checking Guarantors of Brain/OUP house style

When not to use

• clinical advice
• regulatory advice
• routine clinical-trial reporting without mechanistic insight
• bench neuroscience with no clear disease anchor
