Title: Learning by Observing and Pitching In to Family and Community Endeavors
Abstract: Each paper needs an abstract of 500 words or less. The abstract should provide a precise and accurate synopsis of the data reported. It should convey the novelty and significance of the work. Introduction: The introduction should describe the gap in knowledge that this report addresses and it should provide a complete but concise review of relevant prior studies. A typical introduction for Developmental Neuroscience contains 500 words. Discussion: The discussion should provide a thoughtful evaluation of the results. There should be clear statements of the implications, significance and novelty of research and whether the data support or contradict previous studies. It should not simply be a restatement of the Results. The discussion should include sufficient and appropriate citations. Footnotes: Avoid footnotes. When essential, they are numbered consecutively and typed at the foot of the appropriate page. Tables and illustrations: Tables and illustrations (both numbered in Arabic numerals) should be prepared on separate sheets. Tables require a heading and figures a legend, also prepared on a separate sheet. For the reproduction of illustrations, only good drawings and original photographs can be accepted; negatives or photocopies cannot be used. Due to technical reasons, figures with a screen background should not be submitted. Electronically submitted b/w half-tone and color illustrations must have a final resolution of 300 dpi after scaling, line drawings one of 800–1,200 dpi. Table and figure legends: The figure and table legends should be intelligible without reference to the text. The legends should describe what and how the experiments were performed without interpreting the results. All symbols and abbreviations must be defined within the legend as should be all scale bars and statistics. Color Illustrations Online edition: Color illustrations are reproduced free of charge. In the print version, the illustrations are reproduced in black and white. Please avoid referring to the colors in the text and figure legends. Print edition: Up to 6 color illustrations per page can be integrated within the text at CHF 800.00 per page. References In the text identify references by Arabic numerals [in square brackets]. Material submitted for publication but not yet accepted should be noted as [unpublished data] and not be included in the reference list. The list of references should include only those publications which are cited in the text. Do not alphabetize; number references in the order in which they are first mentioned in the text. The surnames of the authors followed by initials should be given. There should be no punctuation other than a comma to separate the authors. Preferably, please cite all authors. Abbreviate journal names according to the Index Medicus system. Also see International Committee of Medical Journal Editors: Uniform requirements for manuscripts submitted to biomedical journals (www.icmje.org). A typical article for Developmental Neuroscience will have 50–75 citations. Examples (a) Papers published in periodicals: Sun J, Koto H, Chung KF: Interaction of ozone and allergen challenges on bronchial responsiveness and inflammation in sensitised guinea pigs. Int Arch Allergy Immunol 1997;112:191– 195. (b) Monographs: Matthews DE, Farewell VT: Using and Understanding Medical Statistics, ed 3, revised. Basel, Karger, 1996. (c) Edited books: Parren PWHI, Burton DR: Antibodies against HIV-1 from phage display libraries: mapping of an immune response and progress towards antiviral immunotherapy; in Capra JD (ed): Antibody Engineering. Chem Immunol. Basel, Karger, 1997, vol 65, pp 18–56. Reference Management Software: Use of EndNote is recommended for easy management and formatting of citations and reference lists. Cover Illustrations Authors are encouraged to submit a color photograph for consideration as cover image after a paper has been accepted for publication. Striking black and white drawings or photographs also will be considered. Cover photo submissions must be accompanied by a one-sentence caption. Images may, but need not be, a component of figure from the manuscript, but must be thematically related to the work to be published. Digital Object Identifier (DOI) S. Karger Publishers supports DOIs as unique identifiers for articles. A DOI number will be printed on the title page of each article. DOIs can be useful in the future for identifying and citing articles published online without volume or issue information. More information can be found at www.doi.org Supplementary Material Please note that all supplementary files will undergo editorial review and should be submitted together with the original manuscript. The Editors reserve the right to limit the scope and length of the supplementary material. Supplementary material must meet production quality standards for Web publication without the need for any modification or editing. In general, supplementary files should not exceed 10 Mb in size. All figures and tables should have titles and legends and all files should be supplied separately and named clearly. Acceptable files and formats are: Word or PDF files, Excel spreadsheets (only if the data cannot be converted properly to a PDF file), and video files (.mov, .avi, .mpeg).
