Funding for research projects related to SARS-CoV-2/COVID-19 or Monkeypox virus
|
We are pleased to announce that two ISIDORe TNA Calls for user projects are open and accepting applications! Researchers interested in research on SARS-CoV-2, Covid-19 or Monkeypox can apply for funding to access imaging technologies and services from Euro-BioImaging portfolio, including France-BioImaging facilities.
If you are currently working or plan to work on COVID-19/SARS-CoV-2 or Monkeypox related topics in the coming months, please contact us so that we can discuss your project and help you apply for support from this fund!
In the SARS-CoV-2/COVID-19 Call, the ISIDORe funding will be distributed on a first come, first served basis!
The pre-application deadline for the Monkeypox Call is the 29th of November.
We therefore strongly encourage you to get in touch with us as soon as possible!

Make sure you register for the France-BioImaging Annual Meeting!
|
On December 13th and 14th 2022, we will have the pleasure to invite you to our Annual Meeting, to be hosted by FBI Bretagne-Loire Node at the Health Research Institute of the University of Nantes (Nantes, France).
2022 is an important landmark for France-BioImaging and its community, as the infrastructure is celebrating 10 years of operation and scientific advances. We will be happy to celebrate this milestone with all the members of the bioimaging community (within and outside the France-BioImaging community).

BioImageIT: integrating image data management with analysis
|
Developed by the Serpico Inria-CNRS-Institut Curie Joint Team, member of the IPDM-BioImage Informatics node of France-BioImaging (FBI), BioImageIT is an open-source framework that integrates data management with analysis using existing softwares.
Started in late 2019, the project, funded by France-BioImaging, is now being deployed in 10 FBI imaging facilities. As it is a first step, the BioImageIT project have the ambition to expand the dissemination of the middleware throughout France and even further, Europe.

Acknowledging and citing core facilities
|
A recent article published on the August 23rd, 2022 in EMBO reports questions the way that core facilities should be recognized in the scientific literature and their key contributions to data lifecycle. This initiative is fully endorsed by France-BioImaging.
This article’s working group has estimated that between 40 and 80% of imaging, proteomics and genomics data at their institutes are generated at core facilities. Unfortunately, the lack of formal rules still leaves core facilities being inadequately recognised. This article proposes that the recognition of core facilities should be deployed via two actions and implemented in two phases: first, with the systematic acknowledgement of core facilities in all scientific publications, and second, by including core facilities and their staff in data citations (Cousijn et al, 2018).
