International Journal of Neuropsychopharmacology (IJNP)

CINP is pleased to welcome the new Editor-in-Chief of IJNP, Prof. Gregers Wegener (in photo), who took on this role in July 2025.

We extend our sincere gratitude to Prof. Anthony Grace and the editorial board for their outstanding leadership and dedication over the years.

Our official Journal, the International Journal of Neuropsychopharmacology (IJNP), is a peer-reviewed scientific journal that was established in 1998. It has been published by Oxford University Press since 2015, when it also became fully open-access.

If you would like to submit an article, please read the author guidelines before uploading. A benefit of 30% discount on the open access fee is provided to CINP members (subject to presenting a valid CINP membership number).

The central focus of the journal is on research that advances understanding of existing and new neuropsychopharmacological agents including their mode of action and clinical application or provides insights into the biological basis of psychiatric disorders and thereby advances their pharmacological treatment. Such research may derive from the full spectrum of biological and psychological fields of inquiry encompassing classical and novel techniques in neuropsychopharmacology as well as strategies such as neuroimaging, genetics, psychoneuroendocrinology and neuropsychology.

Emphasis is given to original research (in the form of full-length papers and brief reports), which is of wide interest and clearly advances the field. Selected review articles and papers that highlight novel trends and perspectives are also considered.

IJNP has an Impact Factor of 3.7 (Journal Citation Reports™ from Clarivate, 2025).

Dr. Joseph Zohar, past CINP president, stated, “IJNP has been an important part of the life of the CINP and a venue for the publication of outstanding and impactful science."
