International Microscopy Facility Survey

Hi All,

Some of you may have seen this already (thanks if you have already filled this in).

I have been running an International Microscopy Facility Survey over the last few months. It is based on the excellent BioImaging UK survey that was published a few years ago, but with an extended focus to include Optical, Electron & Data Analysis facilities.

The primary aim to provide a snapshot of facility operations and allow national and international benchmarking data. There are over 200 responses thus far, but we still need more data to make the survey as robust as possible.

I would appreciate it if you would take the time to complete it. Please check the questions before starting the survey to make sure you have all the data (https://drive.google.com/file/d/1mOXrYOr-8X3SjDLvAzst2Xon00KGDY4E/view?usp=sharing).

The survey will close on Friday 20th December 2024 and can be completed here: https://q.surveys.unimelb.edu.au/jfe/form/SV_bQKUy9E2IW2G5Iq
