IUCrJ is a fully open-access peer-reviewed journal from the International Union of Crystallography (IUCr).

The journal publishes high-profile articles on all aspects of the sciences and technologies supported by the IUCr via its commissions, including emerging fields where structural results underpin the science reported in the article. Our aim is to make IUCrJ the natural home for high-quality structural science results. Chemists, biologists, physicists and material scientists are actively encouraged to report their structural studies in IUCrJ.

IUCrJ covers six broad areas:

• biology and medicine
• chemistry and crystal engineering
• cryoEM
• materials and computation
• neutron and synchrotron science and technology
• physics and free electron laser science and technology

The journal was launched in 2014 to commemorate the International Year of Crystallography.
