The NFDI4BIOIMAGE Research Data Management Community Survey 2026

German BioImaging, within its work in the NFDI4BIOIMAGE consortium, and in collaboration with Euro-BioImaging ERIC, has launched:

The NFDI4BIOIMAGE Research Data Management Community Survey 2026

The survey aims to better understand how bioimaging data are generated, processed, managed, and shared across the life sciences community. The questionnaire takes about 20–25 minutes, is fully anonymous, and is addressed to anyone involved with bioimaging data, including researchers, core facility staff, infrastructure providers, data analysts, data stewards, and project managers.

We warmly invite participation from the global community to help identify current challenges and guide the development of future tools, services, and training activities. Survey results and the underlying data will be made publicly available.

Deadline: The survey is open for participation until April 30th, 2026.

Thank you for contribution to assess the current status of needs within the bioimaging community.

Best regards,
