Access
Any Swarthmore faculty member or student can create an account on the BioRender site using the Swarthmore-specific portal: app.biorender.com/portal/sc. You must use your Swarthmore email address to sign up and create a password.
We have unlimited student use. The number of faculty licenses is limited to a set amount per year.
Faculty have access to the Premium account features, including the rights to publish to a journal. Student accounts have all the features except the rights to publish to a journal. In most cases, it is best for a professor to create an account that owns the figures and collaborate with student researchers.
