“…It is crucial that SRLs are not evaluated solely on their ability to recover costs, but also on their contribution to scientific outputs [31][32][33]. Some scientific outputs, such as author or co-authorships, grant awards, or patent applications, are easy to measure.…”

The purpose of this document is to provide guidance for establishing and maintaining growth and development of flow cytometry shared resource laboratories. While the best practices offered in this manuscript are not intended to be universal or exhaustive, they do outline key goals that should be prioritized to achieve operational excellence and meet the needs of the scientific community. Additionally, this document provides information on available technologies and software relevant to shared resource laboratories. This manuscript builds on the work of Barsky et al. 2016 published in Cytometry Part A and incorporates recent advancements in cytometric technology. A flow cytometer is a specialized piece of technology that require special care and consideration in its housing and operations. As with any scientific equipment, a thorough evaluation of the location, space requirements, auxiliary resources, and support is crucial for successful operation. This comprehensive resource has been written by past and present members of the International Society for Advancement of Cytometry (ISAC) Shared Resource Laboratory (SRL) Emerging Leaders Program https://isac-net.org/general/custom.asp?page=SRL-Emerging-Leaders with extensive expertise in managing flow cytometry SRLs from around the world in different settings including academia and industry. It is intended to assist in establishing a new flow cytometry SRL, re‐purposing an existing space into such a facility, or adding a flow cytometer to an individual lab in academia or industry. This resource reviews the available cytometry technologies, the operational requirements, and best practices in SRL staffing and management.

“…This could include adding a question during the submission process requiring the identification of whether the work was performed in an SRL. A “yes” response could require the completion of a form by either the submitting author or the SRL staff scientist to be uploaded with the manuscript, similar to the MIFlowCyt checklist [16] or similar to the checklist suggested in Kivinen et al [14]. This could become an extension of current requirements to identify the role of each author in the manuscript adhering to ICMJE guidelines, thus enhancing the inclusivity for SRLs and SRL staff scientists in the process.…”

“…Turpen et al [13] published a range of metrics for evaluating SRL performance, and the number of SRL staff scientist publications is a clear metric for expertise and professional development. Proper acknowledgement or authorship not only provides a visible measure of the impact and success of the SRLs but can also help secure further support and funding, which in turn provides scientists with access to more cutting-edge research tools [14]. The type of recognition that is most appropriate will vary depending on the contribution provided and should be discussed between SRL staff scientists and researchers.…”

“…The type of recognition that is most appropriate will vary depending on the contribution provided and should be discussed between SRL staff scientists and researchers. Here, we propose some guidelines to assist scientists in deciding when the SRL as a whole should be acknowledged and when a SRL staff scientist should be acknowledged [14] and/or considered for authorship as well.…”

A guideline for the appropriate recognition of shared resource laboratories in publication

et al. 2022

The issue of what level of contribution warrants authorship, determining a fair order of authors and when and whom to acknowledge in publications is often a cause of debate, and in some instances, has also been a focus of conflict at certain institutions.Shared resource laboratories (SRLs) play a fundamental role in supporting publications, and SRL staff scientists can contribute to numerous areas such as experimental design, sample preparation, data acquisition, data analysis and manuscript drafting and review. However, SRL staff scientists are often unfairly omitted from the author list. To avoid SRLs and SRL staff scientist contributions going unnoticed, the authors have formulated a set of guidelines to aid in the conceptualization and recognition of the technical and intellectual contributions of SRLs. As a better understanding of the role SRL staff scientists play in the achievement of the scientific lead's experimental aims will foster a positive feedback loop, where acknowledgements can lead to more support and funding for SRLs and more engaged SRL staff capable of supporting discoveries and technological innovations that underpin major advancements in the field of life sciences.

Bioimaging has now entered the era of big data with faster-than-ever development of complex microscopy technologies leading to increasingly complex datasets. This enormous increase in data size and informational complexity within those datasets has brought with it several difficulties in terms of common and harmonized data handling, analysis, and management practices, which are currently hampering the full potential of image data being realized. Here, we outline a wide range of efforts and solutions currently being developed by the microscopy community to address these challenges on the path towards FAIR bioimaging data. We also highlight how different actors in the microscopy ecosystem are working together, creating synergies that develop new approaches, and how research infrastructures, such as Euro-BioImaging, are fostering these interactions to shape the field.
