Delighted to announce that Prof. Jan Kassubek will be leading our newest section in Frontiers in Neurology: Applied Neuroimaging.

We are delighted to announce that Prof. Jan Kassubek will be leading our newest section in Frontiers in Neurology: Applied Neuroimaging.

Prof. Kassubek is the Vice Chairman, Head of Neurophysiology section, as well as Head of the Group for Neuroimaging and the Outpatient Clinic for movement disorders at the Department of Neurology, University of Ulm in Germany.

Describing his objective for the specialty section, Prof. Kassubek encourages translational, integrative and multi-disciplinary approaches. The new section will aim at integrating research of both, clinical and neuroscientific grounds with all modalities of neuroimaging in order to be a forum in the promising field of neuroimaging applications to advanced structural and functional mapping of the nervous system. Our technical tools will be recognized as new approaches to the nervous system´s organization during the life span, its pathology in disease, as biological markers, and as a guide in the individualization of patient management and in the design of new interventions to improve clinical outcomes.

We look forward to collaborating with Prof. Kassubek who shares our passion for open access publishing, and constructive and transparent peer reviewing. To participate in the Applied Neuroimaging section you may submit a manuscript, organize a Research Topic or follow us on twitter @FrontNeurol.
