BioImaging Data Steward

Team context
The revolution in imaging technologies has led to the need to share, integrate and reuse image data in a comprehensive way. EMBL-EBI is a world-leader in the archival and dissemination of biological image data, operating the BioImage Archive and EMPIAR (the Electron Microscopy Public Image Archive), which together provide the means to store and search life science datasets from all imaging technologies at all scales and across all modalities.
Role overview and purpose
This role will provide a key link between the UK biological imaging community and EMBL-EBI’s imaging data resources. The post-holder will work closely with facility staff, experimental biologists and image analysts to understand and support their needs in image data management, annotation and publication. They will build on this knowledge to design and deliver training materials for skills training in image data stewardship within the UK, and hence build a strong community of practice.
