[Recommend to Read] A Postdoctoral Training Program in Bioimage Analysis

I cannot download the full text, but the pre-prine version is freely available. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11118354/ The tenure track is very limited, thus generating a post-doc crisis in which the majority cannot compete for the tenure track. They are looking for alternative career paths and focusing in-depth on their technical skill sets. Consequently, the group launched post-doc training on bioimage analysis, where this technique becomes more important in several industries as well as in academic environments, like core facilities. As of now, I don't see a real core facility in Thailand, only the custodians who take care of instruments but don't have in-depth knowledge of the technical part as well as data analysis related to the particular instruments.
