MICROSCOPIA RESEARCH GROUP
General and Oncologic Critical Care
A sustained scientific agenda, expert supervision and shared execution capacity.
Before you apply
Colombian citizens or residents · Spanish
Active membership · Scientific selection · Capacity-dependent
Membership permits an application; it does not reserve a place, staff or authorship. The lead agrees supervision, roles and resources before work starts.
FIND THE RIGHT SCOPE
Turn your expertise into a defined contribution.
A group sustains an agenda and brings expertise together. A project has a question, defined tasks and outputs. An institutional agreement sets resources and responsibilities between organisations.
Contribute to a project
Check project tasks, language and dates. An external route exists only where the call explicitly permits it.
Explore projects →Collaborate through an institution
Propose a question or complementary capability. Methods, contributions, data, budget, intellectual property and output review are agreed.
Discuss a collaboration →An affiliated researcher does not automatically represent their institution. Membership does not grant authorship or automatic access to restricted data.
Dr. Agamenón Quintero Villarreal is a critical-care physician and Head of the Critical Care Department at IMAT Oncomédica Auna (Montería, Colombia). His career combines intensive-care practice, medical education and leadership in critical-care organizations. He has served as president of the Colombian Association of Critical Medicine and Intensive Care and as a vice-president of the Pan-American and Iberian Federation of Critical Care and Intensive Care Societies. His work as a government consultant informs the group’s focus on general and oncologic critical care, quality, health-system planning and public policy.
Questions worth pursuing.
General critical care
Clinical questions, patient outcomes and quality of intensive care.
Oncologic critical care
Critical illness in patients with solid and hematologic malignancies.
Clinical research
Evidence synthesis and protocol-led observational or interventional research.

Applications welcome throughout the year.
Active microscopIA members may apply. Students, early-career professionals, clinicians, engineers and experienced investigators contribute in roles matched to their preparation. Admission depends on scientific fit, supervision and available capacity.
Eligibility: Colombian citizens or residents. Working language: Spanish.
The group leader reviews complete applications and normally responds by email within 10 calendar days.
Present your background
Submit your CV, interests, membership email and weekly availability.
Agree your contribution
The scientific lead reviews your application and proposed role.
Start with a clear brief
Confirm supervision, training, milestones and applicable permissions before research starts.
ACADEMIC PATHWAYS
Connect your academic goals with supervised research.
Credits, undergraduate/master’s thesis, doctoral research, research within clinical training and special projects with microscopIA experts. Institutional approval and a written supervision plan apply.
HOW AN AGENDA BECOMES WORK
A scientific team, with clear responsibilities.
A sustained agenda
A group brings people together around related questions. An observatory organizes a thematic programme and its projects; an individual proposal needs its own evaluation.
A defined contribution
The lead reviews fit, preparation, languages and supervision capacity. Roles, time commitment, deliverables and follow-up are agreed before execution.
A verifiable record
Activity is evidenced through documented projects, contributions and outputs. Membership, group admission and authorship are assessed separately.
What should I know before applying?
- Check each group’s nationality or residency and language requirements.
- Share your profile, skills, interests and realistic availability. Admission depends on the lead’s evaluation and team capacity.
- Each study must document its protocol, responsible investigator, applicable permissions and ethics review, data use, conflicts and contribution criteria.
- Only outputs with a verified relationship should be presented as group production. An individual’s prior experience does not establish a group output.
Build a research group with microscopIA
Bring scientific leadership and a sustained research program. We review the proposal, required resources and recruitment plan before agreeing the group’s scope.
Proposed group name, purpose and scientific priorities.
Proposed leader’s CV, relevant expertise and supervision capacity.
At least three distinct projects: question, design, data sources, permissions, timeline and expected outputs.
Member recruitment: roles, places, qualifications, languages, weekly commitment and selection criteria.
Resources requested, existing support, conflicts of interest and proposed data and intellectual-property arrangements.
Applications to join established groups are open throughout the year to active members, subject to fit and capacity. Group approval does not automatically approve its projects.
