International Job Shadowing Program

Program Overview

Global BioImaging offers an international job shadowing experience to technical and managerial staff of imaging core facilities, providing them with the opportunity to experience life in a imaging facility abroad and learn from their peers.

The Global BioImaging International Job Shadowing Program is open to the imaging core facility professionals and to those who wish to pursue a career in imaging core facilities.

Job shadowing is an opportunity for professional development and on-the-job learning. Job shadowing involves visiting another imaging core facility where the staff may have more experience, operate different imaging technologies, or have implemented procedures not found at the home facility. This experience helps job shadowing participants learn new aspects related to facility management, bioimage analysis, image data storage, quality management, software tools, user access, and much more.

The program allows both the hosting facility and its visitors to exchange experiences and ideas. Additionally, it supports networking and fosters potential future collaborations between imaging facilities and infrastructures.

General guidelines for the job shadowing program can be found in the document on the right-hand side. The guidelines outline the main features of the program and provide practical information on the procedures to be followed by both the hosting facilities and the job shadowing participants.
