Three steps to your account

  1. Request access. Submit the BOX account request. Stony Brook Medicine employees authenticate with their UHMC workstation credentials; non-employees set up a Box username and password when they receive a collaboration invitation.
  2. Log in. Go to stonybrookmedicine.box.com and sign in, or accept a collaboration invite from an existing user.
  3. Get oriented. Watch the quick videos below, then set up your folders and sharing.
