Biomedical Imaging Community

Strengthening Ties Between the Biological and Biomedical Imaging Communities

Welcome to our international working group dedicated to bridging the gap between the imaging communities!

Biomedical imaging leverages advanced noninvasive technologies to explore the structure and physiology of living organisms. At present, biomedical imaging plays a crucial role in clinical practice but also in research to assess disease pathophysiology, defining markers for monitoring disease progression, and assessing the efficacy of new therapeutic treatments.

Our working group is committed to enhancing the visibility and integration of biomedical imaging within the global network. By fostering international partnerships and offering expert recommendations, we strive to advance the capabilities and applications of biomedical imaging from molecular studies to pre-clinical research across the globe.

Following a webinar organised by this working group, we published the key discussions and recommendations in the article “A global effort toward standards for data sharing in biomedical imaging: Developing consensus and infrastructure for global data interoperability” in EMBO Reports.

💡🌍 **Join us for a workshop on biomedical image data practices** bringing together researchers working with biomedical imaging data, as well as the global bioimaging and foundingGIDE communities. This session will dive into key challenges and solutions for imaging data repositories, interoperability, and infrastructure for preclinical and clinical imaging data. Panelists from France Life Imaging, German BioImaging, foundingGIDE, and Australian Imaging Services will share their expertise and experiences.
