BMC Neuroscience 2012, 13:46Adult neurogenesis dependent on cD2
From the early post-natal period Cyclin D2 (cD2) knockout mice show reduced neurogenesis in the dentate gyrus and olfactory bulb, and it is virtually absent by day 28 indicating that cD2 is an essential requirement for ongoing neurogenesis.

BMC Neuroscience 2012, 13:8Smoking-related higher-order conditioning
Paired smoking-related and neutral cues elicit enhanced event-related potentials in the brains of smokers compared to non-smokers, providing electrophysiological evidence of higher-order, associative learning which may play a role in addiction.

Scope
BMC Neuroscience is an open access, peer-reviewed journal that considers articles on all aspects of the nervous system, including molecular, cellular, developmental and animal model studies, as well as cognitive and behavioral research, and computational modeling.
It is journal policy to publish work deemed by peer reviewers to be a coherent and sound addition to scientific knowledge and to put less emphasis on interest levels, provided that the research constitutes a useful contribution to the field.

Quote
"I strongly believe in the internet and open-access publishing in order to achieve scientific outreach both within academia and outside academia. Open-access allows anyone in the world with access to a computer to access scientific research. These innovative journals are becoming extremely successful and will change the nature of scientific publishing and increase the accessibility of science."
