WG 8 – Education, training and outreach

Home / Working Groups / WG 8 – Education, training and outreach

WG 8 – Objectives

The aim of the QUAREP-LiMi consortium is to enhance the quality, reliability, and  reproducibility of light microscopy data across the life and material sciences. WG8 will focus on an important aspect of quality of light microscopy data: the quality of training. This will encompass both principles of microscopy training, and how to train others to adopt the protocols developed in the other QUAREP-LiMi working groups.

Note that WG8, formerly known as the “White Paper” work group, has been discontinued. The new WG8 was started in January 2024 with new members and the new topic: Education, Training and Outreach.

WG8 meets every 4th Wednesday of each month at 16.00 Central European Time (CET) or Central European Summer Time (CEST).

Meeting summary

Summary (topics discussed): Presented and discussed objectives and survey, provided feedback from GerBI, who saw the survey. Sylvia and Gaby showed the latest changes made to the survey. Asked for more contributions (links were shared again). Angela suggested also we have someone more expert on surveys go through the questions (especially making it quantifiable through better structured Likert scales?). Once this is sorted the Gaby sends a preview of the survey to all QUAREP for final feedback, on the spirit of opening to all community before going public with results. We ten plan for a date for releasing if and when there is consensus. Ask also to vote on whether we can/should ask for email (as optional, never mandatory!).
