What is ORCID?

ORCID offers researchers a distinct digital identifier. Publishers, authors, editors, funding bodies, and institutions can utilize these identifiers to reliably recognize individuals similarly to how ISSNs and DOIs identify journals and articles. The ORCID site offers researchers a page to keep a complete record of their research activities. 

Researchers are advised to make their account public so that their research record can be track.
