Light baryon spectroscopy at BESIII

Based on the data sample of $2.7\times 10^{9}$ $\psi(3686)$ events collected with the BESIII detector, this contribution presents recent advances in baryon spectroscopy. Key results from amplitude analyses of the decay channels $\psi(3686) \to p\bar{p}\pi^{0}$, $\psi(3686) \to p\bar{p}\eta$, and $\psi(3686) \to \Lambda\bar{\Sigma}^{0}\pi^{0} + c.c.$ are summarized. Prospects for future baryon spectroscopy studies at BESIII are also discussed.
