Fluids and barriers of the CNS
Hydrocephalus Society has entered into a partnership with BioMed Central’s open access journal Fluids and Barriers of the CNS (FBCNS), in which FBCNS is now an official journal of our Society. The open access publishing model provides articles for free to the general public as well as scientists, clinicians and other healthcare practitioners throughout the world. FBCNS provides a dedicated avenue for the dissemination of research into all molecular, physiological and pharmacological aspects of brain fluids and barrier systems and their role in neurological disorders.
