There is a global need for bioimage analysis (BIA) as advances in life sciences increasingly rely on cutting-edge imaging systems that have dramatically expanded the complexity and dimensionality of biological images. Turning these data into scientific discoveries requires scientists with effective data management skills and knowledge of state-of-the-art image processing and data analysis, in other words, bioimage analysts. The Global BioImage Analysts' Society (GloBIAS) aims to enhance the profile of bioimage analysts as a key role in science and research. To better understand the needs and geographical representation of the BIA community, a worldwide survey was conducted, and 290 responses were collected across people from all career stages and continents. The survey underscores a strong interest of the BIA community in the activities proposed by GloBIAS to address shortcomings in work environment, funding, and scientific activities, and the enthusiasm of the community to actively contribute to the growth and sustainability of GloBIAS as a scientific society.
