ResearcherID is an online registry that allows researchers to create a unique identifier number to promote their scholarly publications. It helps solve author name misidentification and build collaboration opportunities. Researchers can use ResearcherID to generate accurate citation metrics like their h-index and total citations count. This helps them evaluate their research impact and advance their career. Researchers manage a public profile by easily adding publications from databases like Web of Science. ResearcherID then automatically updates citation counts so researchers always have current information to include on their CV.
