Dear Colleagues:
The National Science Foundation (NSF) has issued a Dear Colleague Letter (NSF 25-011) to notify the research community about the mandatory use of multifactor authentication (MFA) for Research.gov sign-in effective on this Sunday, October 27, 2024. All external users must first complete a one-time MFA enrollment process that will be available starting on October 27 and then use MFA to sign into Research.gov going forward.
Training resources, including how-to guides and frequently asked questions (FAQs), will be available on the new About Signing Into Research.gov page on Research.gov Help on October 27. This new page will assist the research community to quickly enroll in MFA and learn how to sign into Research.gov with the selected MFA method.
Please let the ERA Team know if you have any questions.
Thank you,
The ERA Team
