Frontiers in Veterinary Science is proud to announce the launch of its newest section – Veterinary Neurology and Neurosurgery, led by Specialty Chief Editor Prof Andrea Tipold of the Foundation University of Veterinary Medicine Hannover, Germany.

A journal incorporating  aspects of veterinary neurology and neurosurgery will be a wonderful chance to further foster this specialty.” – Andrea Tipold
