Distinguishes You
Distinguishes you and ensures your research outputs and activities are correctly attributed to you
Open Researcher and Contributor ID (ORCID) is a free researcher identifier and profiling system, that helps researchers to establish and maintain their scholarly identity. An ORCID iD is a unique alphanumeric code that researchers can carry throughout their careers. This helps improve the discoverability of the work and eliminates name ambiguity. Up-to-date ORCiD profiles are becoming increasingly required by NIH, scientific journals, and other systems for researchers.

Works with many institution, funders, and publishersThe main goal of the ORCiD project is to encourage faculty/staff/students across Anschutz to build and curate ORCiD profiles that can be used as a source of truth for research activity documentation (grants, publications) and eventually integrate ORCID-related content into other campus systems. CU Anschutz can use your ORCiD profile to showcase your work and provide information for grant tables.
