Practical Neurology

is a journal from BMJ and ABN, publishing articles of practical value to clinical neurologists

The essential point of Practical Neurology is that it is practical in the sense of being useful for everyone who sees neurological patients and who wants to keep up to date, and safe, in managing them. In other words this is a journal for jobbing neurologists who plough through the tension headaches and funny turns week in and week out. Practical Neurology is the official journal of the Association of British Neurologists and available to all subscribers to JNNP.

Practical Neurology adheres to the highest possible industry standards concerning publication ethics. To read the journal's detailed guidelines please see our policies.

The journal publishes regular podcasts of interviews with the authors of highlighted papers. Subscribe in all podcast platforms, including Apple Podcasts, Google Podcasts, Stitcher and Spotify.
