JAMA Neurology

Mission Statement: The mission of JAMA Neurology is to publish and disseminate scientific information primarily important for physicians caring for people with neurologic disorders and for those interested in the structure and function of the normal and diseased human nervous system. The specific aims are to (1) publish timely original research, including clinical trials that will directly improve clinical neurologic care and that will inform efforts to improve neurological health and promote health care equity; (2) report translational research that is pertinent to the understanding of neurologic disease; (3) address topics of practice, ethics, education, and public health that are a key part of modern medicine; and (4) provide a forum for discussion and publication of important topics including bias, racism, and diversity. This information will be published only after extensive review by scientific peers and journal editors so that clarity, rigor, originality, and precision are ensured.
