You can use the Science Tokyo Authentication System.
This service is available through the Integrated ID Authentication Portal for Medical and Dental Fields. The switchover to the Science Tokyo Authentication System is scheduled to take place in the first half of 2025.
In order to realize free and flat communication in a safe and secure environment, we have created usage rules and policies.
Users are responsible for their own use of the campus information services, so please check them in advance and abide by them.
Slack is available to the following, depending on your status. Depending on your status, you may be able to use Slack through your own authentication system or you may need to apply for Slack in advance.
