Journal Guide

Stereotactic and Functional Neurosurgery is the single and comprehensive source of developments in the most rapidly advancing subspecialty within neurosurgery. Technological advances in computer-assisted surgery, robotics, imaging, and neurophysiology are being applied to clinical problems with ever-increasing rapidity in stereotaxis more than any other field, providing opportunities for new approaches to surgical and radiotherapeutic management of diseases of the brain, spinal cord, and spine. The journal publishes advances in the use of deep-brain stimulation, imaging-guided techniques in stereotactic biopsy and craniotomy, stereotactic radiosurgery, and stereotactically implanted and stereotactically guided radiotherapeutics and biologicals in the treatment of functional and movement disorders, brain tumors, and other diseases of the brain. Background information from basic science laboratories related to such clinical advances are also welcome as it provides the readers with an overall perspective of this field. Proceedings and abstracts from many of the key international meetings furnish an overview of this specialty available nowhere else. Stereotactic and Functional Neurosurgery meets the information needs of both investigators and clinicians in this rapidly advancing field.

Steroids is an international journal devoted to original research on all aspects of steroids. Its focus is on both experimental and theoretical studies in chemistry and physiochemistry, biosynthesis, metabolism, molecular biology, physiology, pharmacology, analytical techniques, comparative endocrinology, clinical research, mode of action (including that of related peptides), and the role of steroids on growth and differentiation.Please bookmark this URL: http://www.elsevier.com/locate/steroidsBenefits to authorsWe also provide many author benefits, such as free PDFs, a liberal copyright policy, special discounts on Elsevier publications and much more.

Stochastic Environmental Research and Risk Assessment publishes research papers, reviews and technical notes on stochastic and probabilistic approaches to environmental sciences and engineering, including interactions of earth and atmospheric environments with people and ecosystems. Its core aim is to bring together stochastic modeling research papers in various fields of environmental sciences and to provide an interdisciplinary forum for the exchange of ideas, for communicating on issues that cut across disciplinary barriers, and for the dissemination of stochastic techniques used in different fields to the community of interested researchers. Coverage includes modeling, measurements and instrumentation in the areas of Spatiotemporal analysis and mapping of natural processes; Enviroinformatics; Environmental risk assessment, reliability analysis and decision making; Surface and subsurface hydrology and hydraulics; Multiphase porous media domains and contaminant transport modeling; and more.  See full Aims
