How to cite MNE-Python

Citing the software

To cite specific version numbers of the software, you can use the DOIs provided by Zenodo; look for the "versions" list in the sidebar to find the correct DOI for the version you used in your work (or to cite the project in a general way, use https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.592483). Additionally, we ask that when citing MNE-Python you also cite the canonical journal article reference :footcite:`GramfortEtAl2013a`:

Citing the inverse imaging algorithms

To cite MNE-C or the inverse imaging implementations provided by the MNE software, please use :footcite:`GramfortEtAl2014`:

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. All references cited in the MNE-Python codebase and documentation are collected in the :ref:`general_bibliography`.
