MicroFUN (Microlensing Follow Up Network) es una red de seguimiento de eventos de microlente gravitatoria.Hasta el momento ha participado en el descubrimiento de 4 planetas extrasolares:
* Mayo de 2005: OGLE-2005-BLG-071Lb, un planeta de masa similar a la de Júpiter
* Marzo de 2006: OGLE-2005-BLG-169Lb, un planeta de 10 veces la masa de la Tierra, posiblemente rocoso
* Febrero de 2008: OGLE-2006-BLG-109Lb/OGLE-2006-BLG-109Lc, un sistema planetario análogo al de Júpiter/Saturno

The Microlensing Follow-Up Network (μFUN, pronounced "micro-fun") is an informal group of observers who monitor high magnification gravitational microlensing events in the Milky Way's Galactic Bulge. Its goal is to detect extrasolar planets via microlensing of the parent star by the planet. μFUN is a follow-up network - they monitor microlensing events identified by survey groups such as OGLE and Microlensing Observations in Astrophysics (MOA). In January 2009, μFUN merged with the Probing Lensing Anomalies NETwork (PLANET).

In January 2009, μFUN merged with the Probing Lensing Anomalies NETwork (PLANET). Organizations like μFUN provide a forum and a listserv for instant notification to amateur and professional astronomers all over the globe, so that microlensing events can be mined for all the information that can be gathered. Thus, amateur astronomers have a useful role in significant discoveries, as well as a clear and democratic path to authorship on any peer-reviewed scientific publications that result.
