abstract = {In the dynamic landscape of scientific research, imaging
core facilities are vital hubs propelling collaboration and
innovation at the technology development and dissemination
frontier. Here, we present a collaborative effort led by
Global BioImaging (GBI), introducing international
recommendations geared towards elevating the careers of
Imaging Scientists in core facilities. Despite the critical
role of Imaging Scientists in modern research ecosystems,
challenges persist in recognising their value, aligning
performance metrics and providing avenues for career
progression and job security. The challenges encompass a
mismatch between classic academic career paths and
service-oriented roles, resulting in a lack of understanding
regarding the value and impact of Imaging Scientists and
core facilities and how to evaluate them properly. They
further include challenges around sustainability, dedicated
training opportunities and the recruitment and retention of
talent. Structured across these interrelated sections, the
recommendations within this publication aim to propose
globally applicable solutions to navigate these challenges.
These recommendations apply equally to colleagues working in
other core facilities and research institutions through
which access to technologies is facilitated and supported.
This publication emphasises the pivotal role of Imaging
Scientists in advancing research programs and presents a
blueprint for fostering their career progression within
institutions all around the world.},
