JOINFrom Image to Insight: Why Microscopy Metadata Are Key to Data Integrity webinar
To ensure transparency, accountability, and reproducibility in scholarly publishing, raw microscopy image data including comprehensive metadata are essential. Yet many integrity investigations reveal critical metadata gaps that limit the ability to verify or interpret images and findings.
Join Jana Christopher, Nathalie Gaudreault, Steven West, and Marie Soulière for a community webinar exploring practical ways to improve how image data and metadata are handled in research and publishing. After an overview of current developments, participants will take part in polls and discussion to identify what resources and guidance are most needed to strengthen image data integrity.
Who should attend
Research integrity and ethics officers at institutions, as well as journal editors and publishing professionals interested in practical steps to promote transparency and trust in research using image data.
Perk for early registrants: If you register by March 30, you’ll gain access to a pre-event questionnaire designed to gather your perspectives and priorities, helping shape the discussion during the webinar.
