r/neuro, involving neuroscience: Discussion and news pertaining to neurobiology, cognitive studies, clinical neuroscience, the laboratory, and anything else related.

We're a bit laid back here, you're free to post anything about neuroscience as long as it doesn't break the rules. For more academic discussions of journal articles, r/neuroscience is a great place.

Community Rules:

1. No personal or health-related discussion

This especially includes medical advice, clarification, diagnosis, and discussion of symptoms, drugs/supplements, medical procedures, etc. but any post containing personal or health discussion may be removed at moderator discretion.

2. Claims must be cited appropriately.

Posts that assert a positive claim about the brain must include a link to a peer-reviewed or pre-print article to support that claim. This rule doesn't apply to questions, speculative discussion that is properly caveated, or very basic neuroscience facts.

If you reference any study or if you post a link to a news article coverage of a paper, you must submit a comment with a direct link to the paper if the article you post doesn't have one.

3. Content must be related to Neuroscience.

If your post is not related to the brain, this is not the community for your post.

4. Site-wide content rules also apply.

No bullying, brigading, doxxing, illegal content, etc. Be nice; we're all humans here.
