Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Migraine, a complex neurological disorder characterized by recurrent episodes of debilitating headache, has plagued humanity for centuries. Throughout history, the understanding and treatment of this condition have evolved, driven by a continuous quest for relief from the excruciating pain and associated symptoms.
The primary purpose of this Special Issue of Brain Sciences is to provide an interdisciplinary platform for scholars, researchers, and clinicians to share insights, discuss novel approaches, and spotlight the latest research findings in the field of migraine clinical and research progress. We aim to offer a comprehensive view of the current state of knowledge and to uncover the most promising frontiers in migraine.
We invite contributions that cover a wide spectrum of topics, including but not limited to clinical trials of emerging treatments, molecular mechanisms underlying migraine attacks, novel drug discoveries, and innovative non-pharmacological interventions. We encourage submissions that offer fresh perspectives and groundbreaking approaches to addressing the multifaceted challenges of migraine.
