Neurophotonics is a peer-reviewed, open-access journal published by SPIE that focuses on the development and application of advanced optical technologies to study the brain. Launched in 2014, the journal features cutting-edge research in areas like functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS), optogenetics, advanced microscopy, and photoacoustic imaging. It serves as a key platform for interdisciplinary collaboration among neuroscientists, engineers, and clinicians aiming to understand brain function and improve diagnostics and therapies. Neurophotonics is indexed in major databases including PubMed and Scopus and is led by Editor-in-Chief Anna Devor.
