Mission

Aperture Neuro is the official open access journal of OHBM, dedicated to advancing our understanding of the brain, catalyzing the dissemination of novel methods and tools, and increasing the impact of brain imaging and assessment on society. 

We support an innovative publishing ecosystem that reflects the diverse ways modern neuroimaging research is conducted and shared. We welcome methodological, educational, and community-driven contributions, including non-traditional research outputs such as code, dataset and protocol descriptions, tutorials, and replication studies.
