OSIRIS Case

The entire procedure of research projects and writing assignments within the GSLS is digitalised in OSIRIS Case. As an examiner, you can approach the OSIRIS Case environment via OSIRIS Supervisor. There is a OSIRIS Case guide for examiners available with detailed instructions on this procedure.

You need to have a Solis-id and OSIRIS account to log in to OSIRIS. If you are employed by the UMCU, and you do not have a Solis-id and/or OSIRIS account yet, you can request one on the UMCU Solis account site.

  • What can I do when the host supervisor did not receive a link to access OSIRIS Case?

Send the contact details of the host supervisor to the administration office of Biomedical Sciences or Biosciences, including the email address, and a new link will be sent by them to the host supervisor.

  • What should I do if I have not been in contact with the student for a long time?

Reach out to the research project coordinator or programme coordinator, so they can help.

  • What is a ‘one-time password’?

The one-time password is generated by an authenticator app on your phone (e.g. Google authenticator) that is linked to your Solis-id. An explanation of the app can be found in this manual about two-factor-authentication.
