ESMI partners with npj imaging!

We are excited to announce the partnership between the ESMI and npj Imaging – an open-access journal from the Nature Portfolio.

This collaboration reflects a shared vision and a strong commitment to scientific excellence that is meant to serve the multidisciplinary imaging science community!

“This partnership was initiated with the imaging science community in mind,” said Jolanda de Vries, ESMI President. “We are laying the foundation, but it is up to this strong, collaborative, and science-driven community to shape npj Imaging into a trusted and influential publishing home that reflects the quality and values of our field.

As part of this partnership, all ESMI members receive a 30% discount on Article Processing Charges (APCs), currently set at 2390€.

npj imaging is a peer-reviewed journal that highlights innovative imaging-based research across disciplines – from biology and medicine to physics and materials science. It welcomes original research, methods, guidelines, and reviews that advance how imaging data is captured, analysed, and interpreted at all scales and across the translational pipeline.

Its first Impact Factor is expected for 2026 (released retrospectively in 2027), and the metrics are very promising. You can really make a difference!
