The International Journal of Neurology is a scholarly journal with a long-standing tradition in the field of neurological sciences. The journal was originally founded in 1959, with the publication of Volume 1, Issue 1, under the leadership of Dr. Víctor Soriano, who served as its founder and historical Editor-in-Chief. From its inception, the journal was conceived as an international platform for the dissemination of neurological research, with a strong presence of authors from diverse countries and academic backgrounds.

In 2023, the International Journal of Neurology entered a new editorial stage through a relaunch designed to preserve and project the historical memory and academic legacy of Dr. Víctor Soriano, while also responding to the need to adapt the journal to contemporary standards of scholarly communication. This renewed stage maintains the historical identity of the journal and, at the same time, incorporates current editorial practices and an open-access publishing model. In this new phase, the journal operates in accordance with international standards of peer review, editorial ethics, and transparency, aligned with recognized best practices in scientific publishing.

The International Journal of Neurology preserves and honors the academic legacy of Dr. Víctor Soriano, acknowledging his foundational role in shaping the journal’s scientific vision and enduring international orientation. This commitment to historical continuity constitutes a central pillar of the journal’s editorial identity.

The Editorial Office of the International Journal of Neurology is based in Montevideo, Uruguay, and operates under the auspices of the Víctor and Clara Soriano Foundation. In its current structure, the International Journal of Neurology functions as its own official publishing entity, fully responsible for editorial processes, ethical oversight, and publication management.

The journal is supported by an internationally oriented Editorial Team, composed of editors and editorial board members from different geographical regions and academic traditions, reflecting the global scope that has historically characterized the publication.

In this renewed stage, the International Journal of Neurology adopts a fully digital, continuous publication model, replacing the former quarterly publication schedule. This transition enables more timely dissemination of research while maintaining rigorous peer-review procedures and editorial quality control.

By integrating its historical legacy, international vocation, and contemporary open-access editorial model, the International Journal of Neurology aims to consolidate its position as a reliable and academically robust platform for the global advancement of neurological science.
