Aims & Scope

Cortica is a Diamond Open Access journal with a scientific editorial board, aiming to make neuroscientific knowledge and health psychology accessible to the widest possible audience (practitioners, researchers, students, professionals) while maintaining scientific rigor. Our mission is to foster links between neuroscientific research and practice. Our vision is to meet the needs for understanding and professional development of those in mental health, school and social education, restorative justice, and the various disciplines involved in these fields. With a neuroscientific orientation, the journal publishes research, perspective, and innovation articles from Switzerland and abroad with a clear vision: to bridge the gap between research and practice to improve the quality of interventions. As an "online Open Access" journal, Cortica serves as an important discussion forum for the community interested in the foundations and practices of neuroscience worldwide from a multidisciplinary and integrative perspective. The journal publishes in French and English.
