Join an Organization

Nuvolos is an invitation-only platform. As a researcher, you can be invited in two main ways:

1. Invitation to a specific Research Space: This is common if you are joining an existing project as a collaborator. You can find more information on this process in our guide on joining a research project.

2. Invitation to an Organization: This is for researchers (like PIs) who need to create and manage their own research projects. This document covers this path.

Organization Roles for Researchers

To create and manage your own research spaces, you need to be invited to an organization with the appropriate role. Here are the key roles for researchers:

• Member: This role is typically for junior researchers or external collaborators and does not allow you to create new spaces.

• Faculty: This is the standard role for researchers. It allows you to create new research spaces, manage project data, and control access for collaborators.

• Manager: This role has all the permissions of the Faculty role, and in addition, you can manage organization-wide billing and invite other Faculty/Managers.

For a more detailed description of all roles, please see the role descriptions page.

To start creating your own research spaces, an existing Manager (e.g., a lab admin or PI) must invite you to the organization with either the Faculty or Manager role.
