For TS researchers: The journal Brain Sciences is inviting papers for submission to a Special Issue entitled "Cerebral Etiology and Treatment of the Gilles de la Tourette Syndrome". For more information please go to website. Deadline May 15th 2017.

From website: In this Special Issue, we expect to feature the latest, cutting-edge research into the neural basis of tic disorders. We also seek to emphasize conceptual frameworks that synthesize current understanding of this field of research, and suggest new outstanding questions and directions for further investigations. This Special Issue should be of interest to a broad audience interested in the brain mechanisms involved in tic disorders. We welcome manuscripts that examine, among others, the following research areas:

• Neuropsychological, electrophysiological and neuroimaging studies of tic disorders
• Understanding tic disorders via large-scale network interactions
• Theoretical issues in the neurobiology of tic disorders
• Neurobiological change following cognitive-behavioral therapy
• Neurobiological effect of pharmacotherapy
• Functional connectivity
• Immunobiology and neuroimmunology
• Neurofeedback and biofeedback
• Gene–environment interactions and next generation sequencing
• Brain plasticity and social environment
