Research Connection

Here are a few sites for getting connected in the research world as a researcher...

ORCID-- FREE to register --it's a digital resume/CV for researchers... some journals require the ORCID # instead of a resume or CV--

Overview:

ORCID provides a persistent digital identifier (an ORCID iD) that you own and control, and that distinguishes you from every other researcher. You can connect your iD with your professional information — affiliations, grants, publications, peer review, and more. You can use your ID to share your information with other systems, ensuring you get recognition for all your contributions, saving you time and hassle, and reducing the risk of errors.

ResearchGate (Free)- this helps with connecting to others in the research world, discovering new research, and seeing how your research is measured with reads and citations.. it also helps to advance your research once published..
