Abstract

We herein describe a postdoctoral training program designed to train biologists with microscopy experience in bioimage analysis. We detail the rationale behind the program, the various components of the training program, and outcomes in terms of works produced and the career effects on past participants. We analyze the results of an anonymous survey distributed to past and present participants, indicating overall high value of all 12 rated aspects of the program, but significant heterogeneity in which aspects were most important to each participant. Finally, we propose this model as a template for other programs which may want to train experts in professional skill sets, and discuss the important considerations when running such a program. We believe that such programs can have extremely positive impact for both the trainees themselves and the broader scientific community.

生物图像分析博士后培训计划。

我们在此介绍一项博士后培训计划，该计划旨在培训具有显微镜经验的生物学家进行生物图像分析。我们详细介绍了该项目背后的理论依据、培训项目的各个组成部分、培训成果以及对以往学员职业生涯的影响。我们分析了对过去和现在的参与者进行的匿名调查的结果，结果显示，该项目所有 12 个评分方面的总体价值都很高，但对每位参与者而言，哪些方面最重要却存在很大的差异。最后，我们建议将这一模式作为模板，供其他可能希望培训专业技能专家的计划使用，并讨论了实施此类计划时的重要注意事项。我们相信，此类项目对受训者本人和更广泛的科学界都会产生极为积极的影响。
