Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Understanding the intricacies of the varied diseases that affect the central nervous system (CNS) could undoubtedly enable their more effective management. This goal can be achieved through a multidisciplinary approach exploring the intricate interplay between biological, genetic, environmental, and lifestyle factors contributing to CNS disorders.
This Special Issue will cover the mechanisms underlying CNS diseases, identifying novel therapeutic strategies and diagnostic biomarkers. Thus, we invite studies that investigate the molecular pathways involved in CNS pathology, assess the efficacy of emerging treatments, explore potential biomarkers for early detection and monitoring, and examine the impacts of lifestyle interventions on disease progression and management. Additionally, studies of the role of neuroinflammation, neuronal plasticity, and neurodegeneration in CNS disorders, as well as investigations into personalized medicine approaches and the development of innovative diagnostic tools, are requested, as these studies help to advance our understanding and management of these complex conditions.

Manuscript Submission Information
Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.
Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Biomedicines is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly journal published by MDPI.
Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2600 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
