Virtual conference enhanced accessibility and sustainability in neuroimaging, suggesting future practices for meetings.
In September 2025, the Organization for Human Brain Mapping (OHBM) organised its first virtual satellite conference in collaboration with the OHBM Sustainability and Environmental Action Special Interest Group (SEA-SIG). This three-day gathering of neuroimagers from around the world was an online complement to the in-person meeting. It had a similar content structure, featuring a half-day educational course, a keynote address from the 2025-2026 OHBM Council Chair Professor Michael Breakspear, three symposia sessions, and an OHBM Special Interest Groups showcase. Here, we summarise the content of this first-of-its-kind event, the benefits for accessibility and sustainability, and provide an outlook for future OHBM accessible and sustainable conference practices.
