• ORCID (Open Researcher and Contributor ID) is a registry of unique identifiers for researchers and scholars that is open, non-proprietary, transparent, mobile, and community-based. ORCID provides a universal persistent digital identifier that distinguishes you from every other researcher.     

• You will be distinguished from every other researcher, even researchers who share your same name.
• Your research output and activities will be correctly attributed to you.
• Your contributions and affiliations will be reliably and easily connected to you.

• Individuals supported by research training, fellowships, research education, and career development awards from the NIH, AHRQ, and CDC are now required to have an ORCID.
• Many publishers require ORCID iDs from authors during the publication submission process. These publishers include Frontiers, PLoS, Science, and Wiley. 

• Your ORCID will be connected with Scholarship@Miami, the University of Miami Libraries’ research information hub & institutional repository.  Having an ORCID will raise the level of discovery for your work and help us create a complete bibliographic record of your research.
