加拿大神經科學雜志成立于1974年，并迅速發展成為一份廣泛發行的國際公認的出版物。作為加拿大神經學會、加拿大神經外科學會、加拿大臨床神經生理學家學會和加拿大兒童神經學協會的官方出版物，該雜志出版了臨床和基礎神經科學方面的原創作品。不像其他期刊，往往被限制在一個單一的學科，這本雜志鼓勵發表論文，從神經科學的所有分支。期刊政策是基于這樣一個堅定的信念:從事神經系統研究的專家，無論是臨床還是基礎水平的，都有許多共同的興趣，并且有重要的想法可以相互交流。

The Canadian Journal of Neurological Sciences was established in 1974 and has developed rapidly into a widely circulated internationally recognized publication. As the official publication of the Canadian Neurological Society, the Canadian Neurosurgical Society, the Canadian Society of Clinical Neurophysiologists, and the Canadian Association for Child Neurology, the Journal publishes original work in the clinical and basic neurosciences. Unlike other journals, which are often restricted to a single discipline, this Journal encourages publication of papers from all branches of neurosciences. Journal policy is based on the firm belief that specialists working on the nervous system, at both the clinical and basic level, share many common interests and have important ideas to communicate to each other.
