+title: "siibra-python"
+
+abstract: |
+  siibra is a Python client to a brain atlas framework that integrates brain
+  parcellations and reference spaces at different spatial scales, and connects
+  them with a broad range of multimodal regional data features. It aims to
+  facilitate programmatic and reproducible incorporation of brain parcellations
+  and brain region features from different sources into neuroscience workflows.
