LS Login is a service that provides authentication and authorization for other services within Life Science. As an end-user, you have a single login for using the connected services. LS Login lets you authenticate using your existing accounts at third parties (your home university, research institute or a commercial service) and link it to your LS ID. You can also activate LS account with password. As a result, no matter which linked account you use for login, you will be recognized as the same person at the end service. You don’t need to have separate credentials for each service.

How to get LS ID

1. Open the link or click on button "LS Register" below
2. Choose your home organization, or if you cannot find it on the list, pick one of the supported commercial/community services  (e.g. Google, ORCID) and Log in with the selected account using your personal credentials. If you can’t find a suitable home organisation or other service, you can set password for your LS account and use it as a way for login (see How to get LS ID in case you can not find suitable home organization below).
3. Fill in the registration form. Review and accept usage policy and click on „Submit“.
4. You will receive an email with a verification link. Click the link in the email to verify your email address.
