about
Latin America and the Caribbean comprise a vast and diverse region with significant disparities in scientific development and infrastructure. Based on a solid belief that international cooperation is essential to encompass the challenges of modern science, Latin America Bioimaging (LABI) has quickly emerged as a pioneering regional initiative aimed at harnessing the transformative power of collaboration to drive research innovation and address both regional and global challenges. We aim to unite imaging scientists, facility staff, technology and software developers with researchers to address complex biological challenges using bioimaging technologies, thereby accelerating our understanding of health and disease.
Our events bring together leading voices from the Latin American bioimaging ecosystem and international partners to foster dialogue, innovation, and collaboration. Under the theme “From Data to Discovery: Strengthening Latin America's Bioimaging Ecosystem”, the 2025 meeting will focus on two major pillars:
Day 1 – Data Science & Infrastructure: Building Foundations for Open, FAIR, and AI-Ready Data
Day 2 – Technology in Action: Driving Scientific and Biomedical Breakthroughs
Program & Topics
The LABI Meeting 2025 invites us to come together once again, this time in November 10th to 12th at Buenos Aires, Argentina.
Building on the success of previous editions, this meeting aims to integrate other scientific communities fostering interdisciplinary collaboration and expanding the reach of bioimaging technologies.
The LABI Meeting 2025 will focus on the following topics:
Nov 10 – Data Science & Infrastructure - Building Foundations for Open, FAIR & AI-Ready Data
From cloud infrastructure to FAIR principles and AI-powered tools, this day focuses on strengthening the digital backbone of bioimaging in Latin America.
Nov 11 – Technology in Action - Driving Scientific and Biomedical Breakthroughs
We’ll examine successful use cases, sustainable models for technology adoption, and innovative imaging technologies/tools reshaping biomedical science.​
Nov 12 – Facility Visits & Outreach Activity
On-site Facility tours and an outreach activity to promote visibility and community science
The Satellite Events will be:
Nov 4-7 - Super-Resolution Microscopy Training Workshop (FO-MI SUR)
Nov 12-17 - Array Tomography Workshop
Important Dates
Travel Grants Opens: Soon
