The Global BioImage Analysts’ Society (GloBIAS) is a worldwide association for all interested in bioimage analysis, aiming to empower researchers to quantify biological systems by analysing image data from microscopes. We promote the exchange of knowledge and experience through various activities, and provide professional development opportunities for analysts at all career stages, ensuring sustainable growth of expertise within the community. This, and your commitment, will then become the force to push the bioimage analysis field forward. We welcome you to become a GloBIAS member!

The GloBIAS is a registered not-for-profit association aiming to run independently through membership fees. The foundation of the society was supported by a grant from the Chan Zuckerberg Initiative to the project "Society for Knowledge Exchange in BioImage Analysis" (2023-2025).
