NFDI4BIOIMAGE - a consortium of the National Research Data Infrastructure

What is NFDI4BIOIMAGE?

NFDI4BIOIMAGE is a consortium of the National Research Data Infrastructure (Nationale Forschungsdateninfrastruktur, NFDI) in Germany. A consortium comprises legally independent partner institutions working together with the goal to advance the capacity and the capability of researchers in Germany and beyond to professionally handle, store, annotate, share, and reuse research data. Our focus is on all steps of the research data life cycle for microscopy and bioimage analysis. The NFDI4BIOIMAGE consortium is funded by Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft (DFG, German Research Foundation) since March 2023.

NFDI4BIOIMAGE co-organizing the IO-FAST Think Tank Meeting

IO-FAST (initiative for FAIR spatial data) aims to democratize spatial omics data to enable the community to share and (re)use spatial data in a FAIR manner. We will assemble leaders in the field and users to collect ideas, use-cases, pressing problems, solutions and most importantly provide a synergistic environment. With this community-driven effort we hope to introduce easy to apply frameworks and guidelines.
