How we collaborate
Propose a question and research-ready inputs. Our researchers contribute agreed scientific work alongside you; scientific approval, membership and project fees are distinct decisions.
microscopIA · OPEN ACCESS
Publication support, with a clear route
The ability to pay should not be what determines whether valuable scientific work can reach publication. We assess support within the programme’s conditions.
STUDENTS & YOUNG PROFESSIONALS
Take your review toward publication.
Start your own systematic review or meta-analysis as a member. If you need help, request microscopIA assessment for manuscript preparation, open-access publication costs, or both.
≥50%of authors with active paid membership
01
Scientific quality
Rigorous execution and verifiable methods; completed work is assessed.

Transparent authorship
Authors, contributions, member percentage, microscopIA and external affiliations.
03
Agreed collaboration
microscopIA corresponding author and written support scope.
Support requirements and conditions
For this member-initiated review route, at least 50% of all genuine authors must be microscopIA Network members with active paid membership. Exactly 50% qualifies for assessment (5 of 10); 3 of 5 is 60%. Memberships are verified during assessment and before funding authorization.
Support depends on high-quality execution and scientific assessment of your question, methods and work completed. Manuscript support and publication-cost support are separate decisions, with scope and covered costs confirmed in writing before expenses are incurred.
Report microscopIA Network members with active paid membership as a percentage of all genuine authors: active members ÷ total authors × 100. The 50% requirement uses the exact counts, not a rounded percentage.
List every author, scientific contributions and all actual affiliations: microscopIA department or group where applicable, plus external institutions, departments, cities and countries. Membership and institutional affiliation are verified separately.
For an approved collaboration, a qualifying microscopIA researcher retains the corresponding-author role, with real scientific contributions, accountability, all-author agreement and compliance with journal rules.
microscopIA assesses applicable open-access agreements through the corresponding author’s genuine, verifiable affiliations. The publisher and participating institution must confirm eligibility and coverage; no agreement or fee waiver is guaranteed.
Prepare your review question and type, protocol or registration if available, methods, evidence of progress, author list and contributions, total authors and active-member count. Indicate the support needed and any proposed journal or fee estimate; these may be unknown.
Authorship follows actual scientific contributions. Do not add authors to meet the threshold. A request does not guarantee support, journal acceptance or publication.
Approved work within microscopIA
For approved projects developed within microscopIA, the organization may cover the agreed publication costs under the applicable programme conditions. Existing written commitments to cover approved charges remain in force.
Clinicians & Investigators · collaborative reviews
As an experienced Clinicians & Investigators member, propose a systematic review or meta-analysis with the microscopIA network and request open-access publication-cost support when MORE THAN 30% of the qualifying authors have a verified active microscopIA affiliation.
The threshold allows a support request; it does not automatically grant funding. Scientific review and written approval must confirm the journal, covered amount, exclusions and payment procedure before costs are incurred. Membership alone does not establish affiliation or authorship. Affiliations must be genuine and authorship follows actual contributions. Journal acceptance is independent.
Publication-cost support is distinct from membership subscriptions, project fees and accelerated preparation. Clinical-call fees remain applicable unless a written agreement expressly changes them.

Membership is a separate recurring subscription, not free project execution. No additional 30% discount stacks with these call rates. Existing accepted benefits and signed agreements are preserved; no retrospective charges. Scientific approval, organized authorized inputs and written scope are required. Students & Young Professionals cannot lead these calls. The AI image collaboration retains its separate member-only eligibility and commercial terms.
Evidence reviews retain their included two-month benefit, subject to approval. Case-report and original-study periods are proposal windows with separate project fees; they do not guarantee acceptance or publication.
Terms and coverage →Allowance frequency and preparation time are different.
- Reviews and meta-analyses
- 3–4 months to prepare the manuscript
- Case reports
- Up to 8 weeks to prepare the manuscript
- Original investigations
- Up to 8 weeks to prepare the manuscript
Preparation follows scientific approval and activation with complete authorized inputs. The written scope records the start date, materials, milestones and any agreed changes. Journal review, acceptance and publication take additional independent time.
Explore accelerated preparation →The simulator offers accelerated and preferential preparation targets, subject to feasibility and a separate written agreement. Its commercial estimate is not automatically a supplement for an included benefit: coordination must reconcile the included work first. No duplicate charge; no accelerated journal decision is promised.

Before you join
Is my first-choice project guaranteed?
No. Members are guaranteed a suitable supervised assignment, either their selected project or an alternative appropriate to their background. External applicants follow the open-call selection process.
Can I cancel?
Yes. Cancel future renewal through your account or request assistance. Each active project is reviewed for handover or replacement. Cancellation does not erase qualifying contributions or earned authorship.
Does this include clinical care everywhere?
No. Mental-health appointments require suitability, consent, availability and authorization where you are located. Do not activate a paid plan solely for clinical sessions before confirming eligibility.
What if an included benefit is unavailable?
Contact the team for a dated resolution, appropriate alternative, extension, credit or refund assessment. Capacity limits do not remove the obligation to address an unavailable paid benefit.
