Research in a world where machines read (Matthew Buys)
- ORCID provides a persistent digital identifier that uniquely identifies individual researchers and links them to their professional activities and affiliations. - Over 2.6 million researchers have registered for an ORCID identifier, which are associated with over 6 million publications and 50 thousand organization IDs. - ORCID aims to simplify the lives of researchers by allowing them to enter information once and have it reused across different systems, and enables connections between researchers' work and contributions.
