Submission Status: Open   |   Submission Deadline: 30 January 2026


Journal of Neuroinflammation is calling for submissions to our Collection on Lung-Brain Axis: Influence of Pulmonary Disease and Airborne Environmental Exposures on Neurological Health. This Collection focuses on the link between airborne environmental exposures and brain health.

New Content ItemThis Collection supports and amplifies research related to SDG 3: Good Health & Well-Being.

About the Collection

Epidemiological studies highlight the link between airborne environmental exposures and many aspects of brain health. Furthermore, many patients with chronic lung diseases exhibit comorbidities related to neurological and neuroinflammatory conditions. Submissions to this Collection should explore the scope, mechanisms and neuroinflammatory consequences underpinning this relationship. Studies detailing the nature of airborne environmental components that modulate homeostatic and/or provoke pathogenic lung-brain interactions and that explore the molecular mechanisms and/or molecular consequences of exposures for brain health are welcome.

There are currently no articles in this collection.

This Collection welcomes submissions of original research articles. Please read our submission guidelines before submitting the manuscript. 

Articles for this Collection should be submitted via our submission system, Snapp. Please, select the appropriate Collection title “Lung-Brain Axis: Influence of Pulmonary Disease and Airborne Environmental Exposures on Neurological Health" under the “Details” tab during the submission stage.

Articles will undergo the journal’s standard peer-review process and are subject to all the journal’s standard policies. Articles will be added to the Collection as they are published.

The Editors have no competing interests with the submissions which they handle through the peer-review process. The peer-review of any submissions for which the Editors have competing interests is handled by another Editorial Board Member who has no competing interests.
