ORCID – Open Researcher and Contributor ID is an open, non-profit, community-based organisation that provides a registry of unique researcher identifiers and a transparent method of linking research activities and outputs to these identifiers.

The ORCID Registry is available free of charge to individuals, who may obtain an ORCID, manage their record of activities, and search for others in the Registry. You can include your ORCID number on your webpage, when you submit publications, apply for grants and in any research work to get credit for your work. To register go to the ORCID Register .
