About ORCID iD
An Open Researcher and Contributor Identifier (ORCID iD) is a unique and persistent digital identifier used to disambiguate researchers from one another. Created by ORCID, this iD helps ensure that work is properly attributed and that you receive credit for everything you do. It integrates with other identifiers (e.g., ResearcherID, Scopus and LinkedIn) and databases (e.g., Crossref) to centralize your research outputs and professional profiles. Your ORCID iD remains the same regardless of whether you change your name, your institution, your country or your field of research and provides a unique and permanent marker of your scholarly contributions.
