期刊简介

研究范围与定位

Journal of Anatomy is an international peer-reviewed journal sponsored by the Anatomical Society. The journal publishes original papers, invited review articles and book reviews. Its main focus is to understand anatomy through an analysis of structure, function, development and evolution. Priority will be given to studies of that clearly articulate their relevance to the anatomical community. Focal areas include: experimental studies, contributions based on molecular and cell biology and on the application of modern imaging techniques and papers with novel methods or synthetic perspective on an anatomical system.Studies that are essentially descriptive anatomy are appropriate only if they communicate clearly a broader functional or evolutionary significance. You must clearly state the broader implications of your work in the abstract.We particularly welcome submissions in the following areas:Cell biology and tissue architectureComparative functional morphologyDevelopmental biologyEvolutionary developmental biologyEvolutionary morphologyFunctional human anatomyIntegrative vertebrate paleontologyMethodological innovations in anatomical researchMusculoskeletal systemNeuroanatomy and neurodegenerationSignificant advances in anatomical education.
