Projects and lab/research group

If the projects you are responsible for as a PI are active and marked as CFKUND = 1 in UBW, your lab/research group and account should have been automatically created in iLab. Your lab/research group will be named in the following way:

Lastname, Firstname (KI) Lab

In order to be a PI in iLab, you must be a manager with official staff responsibility in the KI organization. If you are a PI but do not have official staff responsibility, you cannot be a PI in iLab.

If the project you want to use is marked with CFKUND = 1 in UBW and you still can’t find your research group, your manager is probably the PI in iLab. For more detailed information regarding this, please contact cfm-support@ki.se.
