Until 2011, full reviews were published in Brain Research Reviews, which is now integrated into the main section, albeit with independent volume numbering. In 2006, four other previously established semi-independent journal sections (Cognitive Brain Research, Developmental Brain Research, Molecular Brain Research, and Brain Research Protocols) were merged with Brain Research.

The journal has nine main subsections:

• Cellular and Molecular Systems
• Nervous System Development, Regeneration and Aging
• Neurophysiology, Neuropharmacology and other forms of Intercellular Communication
• Structural Organization of the Brain
• Sensory and Motor Systems
• Regulatory Systems
• Cognitive and Behavioral Neuroscience
• Disease-Related Neuroscience
• Computational and Theoretical Neuroscience

According to the Journal Citation Reports, the journal's 2020 impact factor is 3.252.^[1]
