Dear colleagues,
Last semester, Emory began a campaign to have all our researchers’ Open Researcher and Contributor IDs (ORCID) linked to Emory University. As a reminder, ORCID is a global not-for-profit organization that offers researchers a unique digital persistent identifier (DPI) that accurately connects you to your scholarly work throughout your career. Getting and using a free ORCID iD can help researchers save time and get credit for their work in funding, publishing and research reporting workflows. Funding organizations, including the NIH, require ORCID iDs or similar identifiers to apply for and receive federal funds.
Establishing and linking your ORCID iD to Emory is required for NIH submissions. To prevent receiving extra emails on this topic, please complete these steps, which take only a few minutes, ASAP!
