<p style="font-size:10pt;font-family:Calibri,sans-serif;margin:0"><span style="color:black;font-size:12pt">The focus of this special issue is to provide an authoritative overview of major advances in the field of human neurochemistry. Featured articles will
 probe the fundamental relationship between neurochemistry and brain function, plasticity, behaviour, and the effects of neuromodulation. The issue aims to bridge the conceptual and experimental gap between different spatial and temporal measurement scales
 and mechanistic levels of neuroscience enquiry by integrating state-of-the-art techniques in the pursuit of a more unified view of the brain.
