Register for an NMRhub account if you don't already have one. If you have one (but have lost access) please contact support rather than making a duplicate registration. (See the Creating an Account page for additional details on account creation)

Add your PI

Once your account is approved - which can take up to three business days (you will be notified via e-mail when it is created) - head to your user dashboard and at the bottom of the page ensure you have added your PI. Please ensure you use the same e-mail they use for their NMRhub account when you add them. Click save.

It is also possible to link your PI when creating your NMRhub account. If so (and you used the correct e-mail address) you should skip this step.

Have your PI approve the request

Your PI (or their PI delegate if they have assigned one) must head to their lab administration page and approve your PI-link request, which should be visible to them if you've used the correct e-mail. At this point you will have access to any datasets assigned to you in NAN, but not datasets assigned to your PI or other lab group members. If your PI wants to share access to these datasets with you, then they need to complete the "Share lab data" instructions below.

Share lab data

Your PI (or their PI delegate if they have assigned one) must head to the lab administration page and ensure that the checkbox for the yellow "Read" column is clicked for you, and click save. This gives you read access to all datasets in the lab group. If they don't want to give you read access to all datasets owned by any member of the lab group they can create a new project, put the datasets to share in the project, and then head to the projects permissions page to give you access just to that project. Most lab groups share their datasets and therefore this FAQ doesn't cover that process.

Ensure your datasets are assigned to you

If you don't have your own datasets, you just access to lab datasets - you don't need to worry about this. If you have datasets that you collected or a facility collected for you, read on.

Each dataset has both a person of record (the experimenter) and a PI (who has ultimately ownership of the dataset). If you didn't have an account when your experiments were ran, you will need someone to assign your datasets to you. Your facility manager has the ability to perform this action upon your request, and your PI (or their delegate) can also reassign datasets amongst lab group members. If your datasets were not assigned to any member of your PIs lab, only your facility manager can assign them to you.
