This year’s theme of Imaging Data Ecosystem: Towards Shared Solutions highlights foundingGIDE’s commitment to building a collaborative, interoperable ecosystem that enables the seamless sharing, integration, and reuse of biological and preclinical imaging data across disciplines, platforms, and borders.
By bringing together diverse stakeholders—researchers, imaging facilities, data stewards, policy makers, and developers—foundingGIDE aims to coordinate solutions that address challenges such as image data standardization, ontology and metadata, and long-term sustainability of imaging data resources.
As part of this effort, we are inviting contributions from the community through a call for abstracts for posters and presentations, offering participants the opportunity to showcase their work, share experiences, and help shape the future of the imaging data landscape.
More on it on their event page.
The foundingGIDE Community Event is positioned between two major data-centric conferences and offers a unique opportunity for professionals engaged in research data management, imaging, and digital infrastructure to connect with the global data research community. FoundingGIDE Community Event (October 17-18) is following International Data Week 2025 (October 13–16) and preceding eResearch Australasia 2025 (October 20–24) all at the same location, Brisbane Convention and Exhibition Centre, Australia. These three events bring together communities working toward the FAIR data principles and advancing practices in data sharing, stewardship, and interoperability across scientific domains.
Following these, the GloBIAS Bioimage Analysis Conference will take place in Kobe, Japan (October 26-31).
