+How to cite Braindecode
+========================
+
+Citing the Braindecode
+----------------------
+
+If you are using the library in a scientific context, to cite the braindecode software,
+you can use the canonical journal article reference
+
+.. code-block:: bibtex
+
+  @article {HBM:HBM23730,
+  author = {Schirrmeister, Robin Tibor and Springenberg, Jost Tobias and Fiederer,
+    Lukas Dominique Josef and Glasstetter, Martin and Eggensperger, Katharina and Tangermann, Michael and
+    Hutter, Frank and Burgard, Wolfram and Ball, Tonio},
+  title = {Deep learning with convolutional neural networks for EEG decoding and visualization},
+  journal = {Human Brain Mapping},
+  issn = {1097-0193},
+  url = {http://dx.doi.org/10.1002/hbm.23730},
+  doi = {10.1002/hbm.23730},
+  month = {aug},
+  year = {2017},
+  keywords = {electroencephalography, EEG analysis, machine learning, end-to-end learning, brain–machine interface,
+    brain–computer interface, model interpretability, brain mapping},
+  }
+
+
+Citing the MNE
+-------------------------------------
+
+Braindecode is built on top of the `MNE-Python <https://mne.tools>`_ software.
+you can use the DOIs provided by `Zenodo <https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.592483>`_.
+Additionally, we also ask that when citing the MNE-Python package,
+you cite the canonical journal article reference below:
+
+
+.. code-block:: bibtex
+
+  @article{10.3389/fnins.2013.00267,
+  author={Gramfort, Alexandre and Luessi, Martin and Larson, Eric and Engemann,
+          Denis and Strohmeier, Daniel and Brodbeck, Christian and Goj, Roman and Jas,
+          Mainak and Brooks, Teon and Parkkonen, Lauri and Hämäläinen, Matti},
+  title={{MEG and EEG data analysis with MNE-Python}},
+  journal={Frontiers in Neuroscience},
+  volume={7},
+  pages={267},
+  year={2013},
+  url={https://www.frontiersin.org/article/10.3389/fnins.2013.00267},
+  doi={10.3389/fnins.2013.00267},
+  issn={1662-453X},
+  }
+
+
+
+Citing other algorithms
+-----------------------
+
+Depending on your research topic, it may also be appropriate to cite related
+method papers, some of which are listed in the documentation strings of the
+relevant functions or methods. We recommend always check the documentation
+of the function.
