Announcement

Effective 1 July 2024, the Pakistan Journal of Neurological Sciences has transitioned from a quarterly to a biannual publication schedule, with two issues published each year. To avoid delays for authors, articles will be published online as “Ahead of Print” soon after acceptance, rather than waiting for the scheduled issue. Once the biannual issue is released, these articles will be formally included in that issue.

The Pakistan Journal of Neurological Sciences (PJNS) is brought out by a joint collaboration of the Pakistan Society of Neurology, Pakistan Academy of Neurological Sciences, and Pakistan International Neuroscience Society. Its mission is to publish top-quality academic content in a rigorous and accessible format integrating neurology, neurosurgery, psychiatry, neuro-radiology and basic neuroscience. The overall aim is to help clinicians and scientists stay abreast of research and advancements in neurosciences.

The journal is recognized by Eastern Mediterranean Regional Office of the World Health Organization (EMRO-WHO).

Current Issue: Volume 21, Issue 1 (2026)
