In the sciences, your online research identity influences how peers, collaborators, and funding agencies find and assess your work. This hands-on session introduces tools that help you establish a credible and visible scholarly presence, including ORCID, Google Scholar, and other citation profile systems. You will learn how to connect your publications, track your impact, and avoid common issues that can limit visibility.

By the end of this workshop, participants will be able to:

  1. Create or update an ORCID iD and connect it with their research outputs.

  2. Set up and refine a Google Scholar profile to ensure accuracy and completeness.

  3. Identify the strengths and limitations of other researcher identifier systems such as Web of Science ResearcherID.

  4. Apply best practices for maintaining a consistent and professional research identity across multiple platforms.
