01
Choose Your Projects, Build Your Experience
Explore clinical research, artificial intelligence, epidemiology, and other healthcare research opportunities. Depending on your membership, you may participate in one or two projects simultaneously.
Apply to projects matching your interests and qualifications. Each project has specific eligibility requirements, available positions, responsibilities, and timelines. Selection for a particular project is not guaranteed.
Turn your research contributions into meaningful academic achievements. microscopIA provides expert scientific supervision and covers approved publication fees for the resulting manuscripts. Besides working in a real project, you will be an author of the resulting manuscripts.
02
Your Place in Research, Every Month
Your membership guarantees at least one active, supervised research assignment during each membership month. You can enroll and participate actively in up to two projects simultaneously, based on your membership type. Some projects last several months, allowing you to develop meaningful scientific contributions.
If you are not selected for an available project, microscopIA will assign you a supervised scientific review suited to your qualifications and interests.
03
Training, Participation, and Time Commitment
Selected participants will receive structured training in the specific tasks required for the study. Participation is remote and does not require a fixed working schedule. Participants should expect to contribute approximately 3–7 hours per week, depending on the project stage and assigned responsibilities.
microscopIA will keep mandatory meetings to a minimum. The research team may organize additional meetings when necessary to review progress, coordinate activities, or address operational needs.
04
Learn Alongside Experienced Researchers and Clinicians
Develop practical research skills with guidance from qualified clinicians, scientists, and principal investigators. Every project includes defined responsibilities, appropriate training, scientific supervision, and clear deliverables.
Join the microscopIA Research Group, recognized by Colombia's Ministry of Science, Technology and Innovation under Call 894 of 2021, and contribute to research with real academic objectives.
05
Affiliations, Authorship, and Publication
After more than three consecutive months of active membership, members enrolled in a research project who demonstrate satisfactory performance may request a microscopIA Research Associate certificate.
Your certificate will document your research projects, responsibilities, principal investigators, participation dates, and verified scientific contributions. Approved Research Associates will join microscopIA's internal researcher database and may be included in its public directory. Eligible researchers may also receive assistance with formal research-group affiliation through Colombia's Ministry of Science, Technology and Innovation .
Letters of recommendation may be provided at the discretion of the project's principal investigators, based on the member's performance, scientific contributions, and professional conduct. They are not guaranteed.
